4. A Reception Tent A circular reception tent has a center pole 25 feet high, and the poles along the outside are 10 feet high. Assume that the distance from the outside poles to the center pole is 30 feet.
a. What is the slope of the line that follows the roof of the reception tent?
b. How high is the tent 5 feet in from the outside poles?
c. Ropes are used to stabilize the tent following the line of the roof of the tent to the ground. How far away from the outside poles are the ropes attached to the ground?
