Chapter 8: Q. 2 (page 556)

Find an equation for the circle with center at the point (-5,1)and radius 3. Graph this circle.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  • The equation of the circle is (x+5)2+(y-1)2=9.
  • The graph is

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

  • The center of the circle is (-5,1).
  • The radius is 3.
02

Step 2. Find the Equation

  • The general equation of a circle is (x-h)2+(x-k)2=r2.
  • Substitute h=-5,k=1into the general equation and simplify.

localid="1647407263863" (x-(-5))2+(y-1)2=32(x+5)2+(y-1)2=9

03

Step 3. Find the Intercepts

  • Substitute 0 for xand find the y-intercepts.

(0+5)2+(y-1)2=9(y-1)2=-16

  • As the square is a negative value, there are no x-intercepts.
  • Substitute 0 for yand find the x-intercepts.

(x+5)2+(0-1)2=9 (x+5)2=8 x+5=卤22x=-22-5,-22+5

04

Step 4. Plot the Graph

Use the center and the intercepts to plot the circle.

A ship leaves the port of Miami with a bearing of S80掳E and a speed of 15 knots. After 1 hour, the ship turns 90掳 toward the south. After 2 hours, maintaining the same speed, what is the bearing to the ship from port?

A camera is mounted on a tripod 4 feet high at a distance of 10 feet from George, who is 6 feet tall. See the illustration. If the camera lens has angles of depression and elevation of 20掳, will George鈥檚 feet and head be seen by the lens? If not, how far back will the camera need to be moved to include George鈥檚 feet and head?

Finding Distances A forest ranger is walking on a path inclined at 5掳 to the horizontal directly toward a 100-foottall fire observation tower. The angle of elevation from the

path to the top of the tower is 40掳. How far is the ranger from the tower at this time?

Commercial Navigation Adam must fly home to St. Louis from a business meeting in Oklahoma City. One flight option flies directly to St. Louis, a distance of about 461.1 miles. A second flight option flies first to Kansas City and then connects to St. Louis. The bearing from Oklahoma City to Kansas City is N29.6掳E, and the bearing from Oklahoma City to St. Louis is N57.7掳E. The bearing from St. Louis to

Oklahoma City is S57.7掳W, and the bearing from St. Louis to Kansas City is N79.4掳W. How many more frequent flyer miles will Adam receive if he takes the connecting flight rather than the direct flight?

Willis Tower in Chicago is the third tallest building in the world and is topped by a high antenna. A surveyor on the ground makes the following measurement:

1. The angle of elevation from his position to the top of the building is 34掳. 2. The distance from his position to the top of the building is 2593 feet.

3. The distance from his position to the top of the antenna is 2743 feet. (a) How far away from the (base of the) building is the surveyor located? (b) How tall is the building?

(c) What is the angle of elevation from the surveyor to the top of the antenna?

(d) How tall is the antenna?
