- A hiker
A hiker plans to hike up one side of a mountain and down the other side of points a mountain, each side of the mountain formed by a straight line. The angle of elevation at the starting point is 42.4 degrees, and the angle of elevation at the end is 48.3 - 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? - Powerplant chimney
From the building window at the height of 7.5 m, we can see the top of the factory chimney at an altitude angle of 76° 30 ′. We can see the chimney base from the same place at a depth angle of 5° 50 ′. How tall is the chimney? - Traffic sign
There is a traffic sign for climbing on the road with an angle of 7%. Calculate at what angle the road rises (falls).
- Fighter
A military fighter flies at an altitude of 10 km. The ground position was aimed at an altitude angle of 23° and 12 seconds later at an altitude angle of 27°. Calculate the speed of the fighter in km/h. - The rescue helicopter
The rescue helicopter is above the landing site at a height of 180m. The rescue operation site can be seen from here at a depth angle of 52°40'. How far will the helicopter land from the rescue site? - Tetrahedral pyramid 8
Let all the side edges of the tetrahedral pyramid ABCDV be equally long, and its base let us be a rectangle. Find its volume if you know the deviations A=40° B=70° between the planes of adjacent sidewalls and the base plane. The height of the pyramid is h - Cone side
Calculate the volume and area of the cone whose height is 10 cm, and the axial section of the cone has an angle of 30 degrees between height and the cone side. - Tetrahedral pyramid
Determine the surface of a regular tetrahedral pyramid when its volume is V = 120 and the angle of the sidewall with the base plane is α = 42° 30'.
- Heptagonal pyramid
A hardwood for a column is in the form of a frustum of a regular heptagonal pyramid. The lower base edge is 18 cm, and the upper base of 14 cm. The altitude is 30 cm. Determine the weight in kg if the wood density is 10 grams/cm³. - Depth angles
At the top of the mountain stands a castle with a tower 30 meters high. We see the crossroad at a depth angle of 32°50' and the heel at 30°10' from the top of the tower. How high is the top of the mountain above the crossroad? - Calculate 9701
In the triangle, the side length AB = 6 cm, the height per side c = 5 cm, and the angle BCA = 35°. Calculate sides a b. - Raindrops
The train is moving at a speed of 60 km/h. Raindrops falling vertically in the absence of wind (with uniform movement due to the action of air resistance) leave traces on the windows of the train, deviating from the vertical direction by 30°. How fast are - 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
- KLM triangle
Find the length of the sides of the triangle KLM if m = 5cm height to m = 4.5 cm and size MKL angle is 70 degrees. - Balloon and bridge
From the balloon, which is 92 m above the bridge, one end of the bridge is seen at a depth angle of 37° and the second end at a depth angle of 30° 30 '. Calculate the length of the bridge. - Depth angle
From a cliff of 150 meters high, we can see the ship at a depth angle of 9° at sea. How far is the ship from the cliff? - Trigonometric formula
Determine the value of the function tg x (tangens) when cotg x = -0.8 (cotangent); x holds in the second quadrant) - Tree
Between points A and B is 50m. From A, we see a tree at an angle of 18°. From point B, we see the tree at a three times bigger angle. How tall is a tree?
