Part C A spring is attached at one end to support B and at the other end to collar A, as represented in the figure. Collar A slides along the vertical bar between points C and D. In the figure, the angle O is the angle created as the collar moves between points C and D. 3 ft When the spring is stretched and the distance from point A to point B IS 5.2 feet, what is the value of O to the nearest tenth of a degree?

From the veranda of a beachfront hotel, Manny is searching the seascape through his binoculars. A ship suddenly appears on the horizon. If Manny is 80ft above the earth, how far is the ship out at sea? HINT: See Exercise 27 and note that 1mi=5280ft. An airplane reaches an altitude of 3mi above the earth. Assuming a clear day and that a passenger has binoculars, how far can the passengers see? HINT: The radius of the earth is approximately 4000 mi.
