At what rate is the area of the triangle changing? |
2007-02-24 |
|
From mac:
two sticks 3.5 feet long are hinged together and are stood up to form an isosceles triangle with the floor. The sticks slide apart, and at the moment when the triangle is equilateral, the angle is increasing at the rate of 1/3 radian/sec. At what rate is the area of the triangle increasing or decreasing at that moment?

How long does she have to get out of the way? |
2007-02-23 |
|
From Sharon:
How do I solve this? The height h (in feet) of an object that is dropped from the height of s feet is given by the formula h = s - 16t^2 , where t is the time the object has been falling. A 6 foot tall woman on a sidewalk looks directly overhead and sees a window washer drop a bottle from the 6 story. How long does she have to get out of the way? Round to the nearest tenth. (A story is 12 feet.)

I know the hypotenuse of a right triangle is a^2 + b^2 = c^2 but when I replace this with the numbers given, I can't solve it.
Here is my question: The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 2.8 units long. The longer leg is 1.9 units longer than the shorter leg. Find the lengths of the sides of the triangle.

A pentagon inscribed in a circle |
2007-02-22 |
|
From Amanda:
Find the formula for calculating the length of the side of a pentagon given the radius of the circle that encloses it. Once you find the formula, find the length of the side of a pentagon which is enclosed in a circle 12 cm in diameter. So I need to know the formula, and the length of the side of the pentagon. Thank you!!
