The circular blade on a saw rotates at 5000 revolutions per minute. (a) Find the angular speed of the blade in radians per minute. (b) The blade has a diameter of \(7 \frac{1}{4}\) inches. Find the linear speed of a blade tip.
A carousel with a 50 -foot diameter makes 4 revolutions per minute. (a) Find the angular speed of the carousel in radians per minute. (b) Find the linear speed (in feet per minute) of the platform rim of the carousel.
Write the function in terms of the sine function by using the identity $$A \cos \omega t+B \sin \omega t=\sqrt{A^{2}+B^{2}} \sin \left(\omega t+\arctan \frac{A}{B}\right).$$ Use a graphing utility to graph both forms of the function. What does the graph imply? $$f(t)=3 \cos 2 t+3 \sin 2 t$$
A cellular telephone tower that is 150 feet tall is placed on top of a mountain that is 1200 feet above sea level. What is the angle of depression from the top of the tower to a cell phone user who is 5 horizontal miles away and 400 feet above sea level?
Write a short paper explaining to a classmate how to evaluate the six trigonometric functions of any angle \(\theta\) in standard position. Include an explanation of reference angles and how to use them, the signs of the functions in each of the four quadrants, and the trigonometric values of common angles. Be sure to include figures or diagrams in your paper.
