Chapter 10.4, Problem 4MRPS
Solution

a.

To find:The equation of the distance d from the top of the ride.

The equation of the distance d from the top of the ride is d=120−200tanθ .

Given information:

The ride is 120 feet tall.

Calculation:

Using tangent ratio,

  tanθ=OppositeAdjacent=120−d200200tanθ=120−dd=120−200tanθ

Therefore, the equation of the distance d from the top of the ride is d=120−200tanθ .

b.

To find: The domain of the function.

The domain of the function is 0∘≤d≤30.96∘ .

Given information:

The ride is 120 feet tall.

Calculation:

The range of the function is given by,

  0≤d≤120

Using tangent ratio,

  tanθ=OppositeAdjacent=120−d200200tanθ=120−dd=120−200tanθ

At d=0 ,

  d=120−200tanθ0=120−200tanθ200tanθ=120tanθ=120200=35θ=30.96∘

At d=120 ,

  d=120−200tanθ120=120−200tanθ200tanθ=0tanθ=0θ=0∘

Therefore, the domain of the function is 0∘≤d≤30.96∘ .

c.

To find: How the graph relates to the given function.

When the angle of elevation increases,the distance from the top of the ride decreases.

Given information:

The ride is 120 feet tall.

Calculation:

Let's plot the graph for the given function,

The function is given by,

  d=120−200tanθ

Finding the values of d

  Algebra 2: New York Edition (holt Mcdougal Larson Algebra 2), Chapter 10.4, Problem 4MRPS

The graph shows that the friend's distance from the top of the ride reduces as the angle of elevation is increased.

Therefore, when the angle of elevation increases, the distance from the top of the ride decreases.
