Chapter 10.1, Problem 32PS
Solution

a.

To write an equation that gives the car’s distance d from the base of the bridge as a function of the angle θ.

  d=140tanθ

Given:

The car position with respect to the person on the bridge is shown as:

  Holt Mcdougal Larson Algebra 2: Student Edition 2012, Chapter 10.1, Problem 32PS , additional homework tip 1

Calculation:

Now, calculating the distance d using the trigonometric function as:

  tanθ=BaseHeighttanθ=d140     d=140tanθ

Hence, the distance d as a function of θ is d=140tanθ.

b.

To draw the graph of the function of part(a).

Given:

The function of a car’s distance is given as:

  d=140tanθ

Graph:

The graph of the given function is shown below:

  Holt Mcdougal Larson Algebra 2: Student Edition 2012, Chapter 10.1, Problem 32PS , additional homework tip 2

Interpretation:

Here, when the car moves, θ will move from 0∘ to 90∘ . From the graph, it is observed that when the θ=0∘ , the distance d is zero. It means that the car is just under the bridge.

If θ increases, then the distance of car from the base of bridge increases according to the trigonometry tangent function. Here, when the car goes to an infinite distance far away, then it will make an angle of θ=90∘ .

c.

To make a table to find the car’s distance from the bridge for different values of θ.

  Angleθ20°40°60°Car's distance d50.96 ft117.46 ft242.48 ft

Given:

The function of the car’s distance d is given as:

  d=140tanθ

Calculation:

Calculating the values of d for different values of θ as:

  d=140tanθ

For θ=20°

  d=140tan20°d=140×0.364d=50.96 ft

For θ=40°

  d=140tan40°d=140×0.839d=117.46 ft

For θ=60°

  d=140tan60°d=140×1.732d=242.48 ft

Hence, the car’s position at different angles is:

  Angleθ20°40°60°Car's distance d50.96 ft117.46 ft242.48 ft
