The yardage markers indicate the ball is still 175 yardsfrom the hole. Determine the angle the golfer went off line from the tee when theydrove the ball.An advertising balloon is floating over the entrance to a furniture store. Theballoon is held in place by two ropes. Each rope is tied to the base of the balloonand then anchored to the ground. The two anchors are located on opposite sidesof the balloon and are 40 m apart. The angles the ropes make with the groundare 42° and 57°. How high above the parking lot is the balloon?11.At a ski resort, skiers must take two lifts to reach the peak of the mountain. Theytravel 1200 m at an inclination of 52° to get a transfer point. They then travel1600 m at an inclination of 58°. The ski resort plans on putting in one lift that willtake the place of the two existing lifts. Determine the length of the new lift if itstarts at the base of the mountain where the first lift started and stops at the peakof the mountain where the second lift stopped.
