The towers of a suspension bridge are 800 feet apart and rise 160 feet above the road. The cable between the towers has the shape of a parabola and the cable just touches the sides of the road midway between the towers. What is the height of the cable 100 feet from a tower?
Exercises \(95-97\) will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. Consider the equation \(\frac{x^{2}}{16}-\frac{y^{2}}{9}=1\) a. Find the \(x\) -intercepts. b. Explain why there are no \(y\) -intercepts.
Will help you prepare for the material covered in the first section of the next chapter. Evaluate \(\frac{(-1)^{n}}{3^{n}-1}\) for \(n=1,2,3,\) and 4
a. Identify the conic section that each polarequation represents. b. Describe the location of a directrix from the focus located at the pole. $$ r=\frac{12}{2-4 \cos \theta} $$
What happens to the shape of the graph of \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\) as \(\frac{c}{a} \rightarrow 0,\) where \(c^{2}=a^{2}-b^{2} ?\)
