The depth of the swimming pool that is filled to the top is; 4 m

<h3>Snell's Law</h3>

I have attached a schematic diagram showing this question.

The correct width of the pool is 4 meters. Thus; w = 4 m

Incident Angle; θ₁ = 20°

A right angle is 90° and so the angle θ₂ is calculated from;

θ₂ = 90° - θ₁

θ₂ = 90° - 20°

θ₂ = 70°

We can use snell's law formula to find θ₃.

Thus;

n₁sinθ₂ = n₂sinθ₃

where;

n₁ is refractive index of air = 1

n₂ is refractive index of water = 1.33

Thus;

1*sin 70 = 1.33*sin θ₃

sin θ₃ = (sin 70)/1.33

Solving this gives;

θ₃ = 44.95°

By usage of trigonometric ratios we can find the depth of the pool using;

w/d = tan θ₃

Thus;

d = w/(tan θ₃)

d = 4/(tan 44.95)

d ≈ 4 m

Answer: =x4+3x3+2x2−4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x2+3x+2)(x2)−4

Distribute:

=(x2)(x2)+(3x)(x2)+(2)(x2)+−4

=x4+3x3+2x2+−4
