Also ACB and ACD each have measure 60. a Show that the radius r of the common face is given by r=aba-b Hint: Use the Law of Sines together with the fact that an angle and its supplement 180- have the same sign. b Find the radius of the common face if the radii of the bubbles are 4 cm and 3 cm. c What shape does the common face take if the two bubbles have equal radii?arrow_forwardDistances to Venus The elongation of a planet is the angle formed by the planet, earth, and sun see the figure. It is known that the distance from the sun to Venus is 0.723 AU see Exercise 71 in Section 5.2. At a certain time the elongation of Venus is found to be 39.4. Find the possible distances from the earth to Venus at that time in astronomical units AU.arrow_forward
- APPLICATIONS Length of a Fold The lower right-hand corner of a long piece of paper 6in, wide is folded over to the left-hand edge as shown. The length L of the fold depends on the angle . Show that L=3sincos2arrow_forwardCONCEPTS If the angle is in standard position and P(x,y) is a point on the terminal side of , and r is the distance from the origin to P, then sin= cos= tan=arrow_forwardLength of a Guy Wire A communications tower is located at the top of a steep hill, as shown. The angle of inclination of the hills is 58. A guy wire is to be attached to the top of the tower and to the ground, 100 m downhill from the base of the tower. The angle in the figure is determined to be 12. Find the length of the cable required for the guy wire.arrow_forward
- Height of a Mountain To calculate the height h of a mountain, angles and and distance d are measured, as shown in the figure below. a Show that h=dcotcot b Show that h=dsinsinsin() c Use the formulas from parts a and b to find the height of a mountain if =25, =29 and d=800 ft. Do you get the same answer from each formula?arrow_forwardHeight of a Tower A water tower is located 325 ft from a building see the figure. From a window in the building, an observer notes that the angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 39 and that the angle of depression to the bottom of the tower is 25. How tall is the tower? How high is the window?arrow_forward
