- Climb of the road
At what angle does the road rise if the climb is 8%? They rounded up for tens of minutes.
- Acceleration 2
If a car traveling at a velocity of 80 m/s/south accelerated to a speed of 100 m/s east in 5 seconds, what is the car's acceleration? Using Pythagorean theorem
- Mountain railway
The railway line's height difference between points A and B is 38.5 meters. Their horizontal distance is 3.5 km. Determine the average climb in permille up the track.
- River
From the observatory 18 m high and 31 m from the riverbank, river width appears in the visual angle φ = 20°. Calculate the width of the river.
- Pythagorean 81883
Hello, I have a problem calculating the height on side z in the general triangle XYZ, where z=4 cm, x=1.5 cm, and y=3.7 cm. It was assigned in 8th grade when discussing the Pythagorean theorem. Thank you.
- A flagpole
A flagpole is leaning at an angle of 107° with the ground. A string fastened to the top of the flagpole is holding up the pole. The string makes an angle of 38° with the ground, and the flagpole is 8 m long. What is the length of the string?
- A drone
A flying drone aimed the area for an architect. He took off perpendicularly from point C to point D. He was 300 m above ABC's plane. The drone from point D pointed at a BDC angle of 43°. Calculate the distance between points C and B in meters.
- Observation tower
At the top of the hill, there is a 30-meter-high observation tower. We can see its heel and shelter from a certain point in the valley at elevation angles a=28°30" and b=30°40". How high is the top of the hill above the horizontal plane of the observation
- Three pillars
On a straight road, three pillars are 6 m high at the same distance of 10 m. At what angle of view does Vlado see each pillar if it is 30 m from the first and his eyes are 1.8 m high?
- Horizontal 83362
The observer sees the plane at an elevation angle of 35° (angle from the horizontal plane). At that moment, the plane reported an altitude of 4 km. How far from the observer is the place over which the aircraft flies? They circled for hundreds of meters.
- Perpendicular 22931
How far apart would two passenger cars be after 2 hours of driving if they left the same garage on two perpendicular paths, one going at 82 km/h and the other at 104 km/h?
- Altitude angle
In complete winds-free weather, the balloon took off and remained standing exactly above the place from which it took off. It is 250 meters away from us. How high did the balloon fly when we saw it at an altitude angle of 25°?
- Railway
The railway line climbs 8 permille between points A and B, whose horizontal distance is 1.5 km. It climbs 14 permille between points B and C, which have a horizontal distance of 900 m. Calculate the differences in altitudes between points A and C.
- Aircraft
From the aircraft flying at an altitude of 500m, they observed places A and B (at the same altitude) in the direction of flight at depth angles alpha = 48° and beta = 35°. What is the distance between places A and B?
- Position 19113
The column is fixed in a vertical position by 3 ropes, which are caught at the height of 3 m above the ground. The other ends of the ropes are anchored to the ground at a distance of 4 m from the base of the column. How much rope was used to secure the po
- Altitude angles
Cities A, B, and C lie in one elevation plane. C is 50 km east of B, and B is north of A. C is deviated by 50° from A. The plane flies around places A, B, and C at the same altitude. When the aircraft is flying around B, its altitude angle to A is 12°. Fi
- River
Calculate how many permille river Hudson average falls, if on section long 952 km flowing water from 1231 m AMSL to 131 m AMSL.
- Measurements 8129
The plane flies at an altitude of 22.5 km to the observatory. At the time of the first measurement, it was seen at an elevation angle of 28° and during the second measurement at an elevation angle of 50°. Calculate the distance it flies between these two
- Black diamond run
Taleah is skiing down a black diamond run. She begins skiing at the top of a ski trail whose elevation is about 8625 feet. The ski run ends toward the base of the mountain at 3800 feet. The horizontal distance between these two points is about 4775 feet.
- Chauncey
Chauncey is building a storage bench for his son's playroom. The storage bench will fit into the corner and against two walls to form a triangle. Chauncy wants to buy a triangular-shaped cover for the bench. Suppose the storage bench is 2 1/2 ft along one
