____6. A building that sits on horizontal ground has a radio antenna attached to its roof. From a point 100 meters from the base of the building, the angle of elevation to the bottom of the antenna is 30. From the same position, the angle of elevation to the top of the antenna is 40. Use this information to determine the height of the antenna. (Round to 2 decimal places.) (a) 130.54 meters (b) 17.63 m. (c) 60.89 m. (d) 26.17 m. (e) 83.91 m.
(a) 1150 centimeters per second (b) 50 cm./sec. (c) 46 cm./sec. (d) 575 cm./sec. (e) 2300 cm./sec. ____11. You have determined that in order to model a physical process, you need to specify a trigonometric function with the following characteristics: The amplitude is equal to 5; the period is equal to 4; and the value of the function, y, is equal to zero when X=0. Which of the following functions would satisfy these requirements?
____12. A ship leaves a port and heads due north (N 0 W) for 100 miles. It then changes course and has a bearing of N 30 W. After some time, the ship calls the port and the ship is informed that the bearing from the port to the ship is N 20 W. What is the distance from the port to the ship? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) (a) 146.19 miles (b) 196.96 miles (c) 287.94 miles (d) 228.89 miles (e) 498.72 miles
decimal places.) (a) =18.43 (b) =161.57 (c) = - 18.43 (d) =198.43 (e) =108.43
____14. The wind velocity (measured in kilometers per hours) at a weather station is represented by the vector : v^ ^30 i^ ^40 j
What is the speed of the wind? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) (a) 20.00 kilometers per hour (b) 50.00 km./hr. (c) 2500.00 km./hr. (d) 26.48 km./hr. (e) 3.16 km./hr.

____16. You have purchased a tract of land that is in the shape of a triangle ABC. The following measurements are known: Angle B=35, angle C=105, and the length of side b=15 meters. You have decided to put a fence around the perimeter of the piece of land. Determine the length of fencing that will be required. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Drawing a picture may help. (a) 57.07 meters (b) 65.47 m. (c) 73.45 m. (d) 94.70 m. (e) No such triangle is possible
(b) (8 points) Determine the bearing from the airport to the plane. Your answer should be in the form: N ___ ___. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
. A wind begins blowing, and the velocity of the wind is represented by the vector: w^ ^40 i^ ^40 j
direction angle for this resultant vector. (Note: Your answer should be the measure of an angle, not a bearing.) Round your answer to 2 decimal places. A picture may be useful. (b) (6 points) By how many degrees has the plane’s course been changed from its original direction before the wind started blowing? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
