Bruce begins 7 kilometers to the north of town and rides his bike along a straight trail which leads to a park 3km west of town. It takes him 20 minutes to cover this distance. Write a vector in component form that describes his ride while also finding the magnitude and direction of this vector. Also, find the component of Bruce's motion which is in the direction of SW using a unit vector that uses both forms of the dot product (algebraic and geometric), then write parametric equations expressing his motion with the town being represented by the origin and t=0 being his starting point. Using these equations, what is his position after 5 minutes? Then eliminate the parameter to get a rectangular equation for this linear path and verify algabraically amd graphically that this equation represents the line.

You are wondering how high that hawk is, surveying your back yard from a perch at the top of an oak tree toward the back property line. Remembering that you learned about vectors in physics, you measure off two components of a vector from your feet to the bird. Let "x" be parallel to the back of your house, and "y" perpendicular to the house out to the base of the tree. The vector to the bird would be (x, y, z). If x is 49 and y is 70 meters, what would z be in meters such that the angle from your feet to the bird is 45 degrees?
