The shoreline of Circle Lake is a circle with diameter 2 mi . Nancy’s training routine begins at point E on the eastern shore of the lake. She jogs along the north shore to a point P and then swims the straight line distance, if any, from P to point W diametrically opposite E (Figure Ex-57). Nancy swims at a rate of 2 mi/h and jogs at 8 mi/h . How far should Nancy jog in order to complete her training routine in (a) the least amount of time (b) the greatest amount of time?

Anya is an aerial photographer. She plans to
photograph the Lion's Gate Bridge from a
helicopter.
The bridge is 1617 m long.
The helicopter will be 470 m above and
600 m away horizontally from one end of
the bridge.
Can Anya capture the entire distance across
the bridge with a 140° wide-angle lens?
Draw a diagram with your solution.

Taylor's running routine has him start at the center of a circular track having a radius 88 yards. He runs
from the center directly to the track, then runs the perimeter of the track for 27 seconds, and immediately
runs directly back to the center. His running speed is typically 8 feet per second.
a. How many feet has Taylor traveled once he has returned to his starting position?
feet
b. How many seconds will it take for Taylor to complete his circuit?
seconds
c. How many square yards is the area of the pie-shaped sector enclosed by Taylor's path?
square yards
