- Laying Phone Cable City A lies on the north bank of a river that is 1 mile wide. You need to run a phone cable from City A to City B, which lies on the opposite bank 5 miles down the river. You will lay L miles of the cable along the north shore of the river, and from the end of that stretch of cable you will lay W miles of cable running under water directly toward City B. See Figure 2.108. Figure 2.108 You will need the following fact about right triangles: A right triangle has two legs, which meet at the right angle, and the hypotenuse, which is the longest side. An ancient and beautiful formula, the Pythagorean theorem, relates the lengths of the three sides: Lengthofhypotenuse=Lengthofoneleg2+Lengthofotherleg2 a. Find an appropriate right triangle that shows that W=1+(5L)2 b. Find a formula for the length of the total phone cable P from City A to City B as a function of L. c. Make a graph of the total phone cable length P as a function of L, and explain what the graph is showing. d. What value of L gives the least length for the total phone cable? Draw a picture showing the least-length total phone cable.arrow_forwardComplete an analytic proof of the following theorem: In a triangle that has sides of lengths a,b, and c, if c2=a2+b2, then the triangle is a right triangle.arrow_forwardFor the 30-60-90 triangle shown, suppose that XZ=a. Find: a YZ b XYarrow_forward
- Solve the right triangle shown at the right for all unknown sides and angles.arrow_forwardA landscaper wants to put a square reflecting pool next to a triangular deck, as shown below. The triangular deck is a right triangle, with legs of length 9 feet and 11 feet, and the pool will be adjacent to the hypotenuse. (a) Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of a side of the pool. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot. (b) Find the exact area of the pool.arrow_forward
