A normal to a curve |
2007-07-16 |
|
Samantha pose la question : The function f is defined by f:x --> -0.5x^2 + 2x + 2.5
Let N be the normal to the curve at the point where the graph intercepts the y-axis. Show that the equation of N may be written as y = -0.5x + 2.5.
Let g:x--> -0.5x + 2.5
(i) find the solutions of f(x) = g(x)
(ii) hence find the coordinates of the other point of intersection of the normal and the curve Penny Nom lui répond. |

Height of a tower from two observations |
2007-07-16 |
|
joyce pose la question : An observer wishes to determine the height of a tower. He takes sight @
the top of the tower from A & B w/c are 5oft. apart @
the elevation on a direct line w/ the tower.
The vertical angle @ point A is 30 degrees & the point B is 40 degrees.
What is the height of the tower?
Find the value of x in angle tangent 40 degrees and 30 degrees?
Show the solution of the value of x? Stephen La Rocque lui répond. |
