A shoreline observation post is located on a cliff such that the observer is 270 feet above sea level. The observer spots a ship approaching the shore and the ship is traveling at a constant speed e of depresion- a. When the observer initially spots the ship, the angle of depression for the observer's vision is 6 degrees. At this point in time, how far is the ship from the shore? 2568.87 feet Preview b. After watching the ship for...
10. A shoreline observation post is located on a cliff such that the observer is 310 feet above sea level. When initially spotted, the angle of depression (the angle at which an observer needs to look down) from the observation post to an approaching ship was 4.8° a. Draw a diagram of the situation and label each known and unknown quantity measure b. How far out to sea was the ship when it was first spotted? c. After watching the...

36. A math book is lobbed from a height of 4 feet above the ground at an angle of 45" to the horizontal with an initial speed of 20 feet per second. Students in a physics class determined that the path of the book is 202 + +x+4 where x is the distance in feet that the ball has traveled and y is the height of the book above the ground. a. Find the horizontal distance the book has traveled...
A woman is standing at an elevation of 108 feet at the edge of a cliff. She finds that the angle of depression to a car on the ground level is 17". Find the diagonal distance between the woman and the car. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Ramp that is 24.3 feet long reaches up to a platform from level ground. If the ramp's angle of elevation is 7.5 degrees, find the height of the platform.
A small balloon is released at a point 60 feet away from an observer, who is on level ground. If the balloon goes straight up at a rate of 10 feet per second, how fast (in feet per second) is the distance from the observer to the balloon increasing when the balloon is 80 feet high? 10 a
A baseball is hit at a point of 3 feet above ground at a velocity of 100 feet per second and an angle of 45 degrees. The path of the baseball is h(x)= -0.0032(x-156.25)squared+87, where x and h(x) are measured in feet.A. what is the baseball's maximium height?B. will the baseball clear a 25-foot fence located 300 feet from home plate/
