Part II nswer all questions in this part. Each correct answer will receive 2 credits. learly indicate. ladder that is 16 feet long leans against a building such that its base is feet from the bottom of the building. Draw a picture illustrating this scenario and determine, to the nearest tenth of a foot, how high up the building the ladder reaches. 14. ladder that is 16 feet long leans against a building such that it makes an angle of 60 with respect to the ground. Determine the height, h, that the ladder reaches up the side of the building accurate to the nearest tenth of a foot. [2 points] 16 feet h 60 15. Thomas is trying to determine if a 15-foot long ladder will reach a roof that is twelve feet above the ground safely. The guidelines on the ladder claim that it will be safe as long as the angle it makes with respect to the ground is less than 65. Will Thomas s ladder safely reach the window feet above the ground? 15 feet lgebra 1, Unit Reviews, Unit # Right Triangle Trigonometry The rlington lgebra Project, LaGrangeville, NY 540
Part III - nswer all questions in this part. Each correct answer will receive 3 credits. learly indicate 16. tree casts a shadow that is 45 feet long at a time when the sun is at an angle of elevation of 35. Draw a picture of this scenario and determine the height of the tree to the nearest tenth of a foot. 1. In right triangle shown below, Maria measured the length of side as 6 inches and the length of side as 10 inches. She then used a protractor to measure angle and found it to be 42. Did Maria correctly measure the two sides and the one angle of this triangle? Justify your response. 10 inches 6 inches 42 Part IV - nswer all questions in this part. Each correct answer will receive 4 credits. learly indicate 18. Two people standing on a level road spot a hot-air balloon hovering 0 feet overhead. The person at point sees the balloon at an angle of elevation of 36, while the person at point sees the balloon at an angle of elevation of 52.

1. boat is sailing dangerously towards a rocky shore as shown in the picture below. The boat knows that the height of the lighthouse is 40 feet. The angle of elevation when the boat was at point was 36 and the angle of elevation when it reached point was 48. Determine the distance the boat traveled from point to point to the nearest foot. [4 points] 40 feet 36 48 20. helicopter is flying above two cars at a height of 0 feet. The angles of depression to the two cars are 35 and 62 respectively. Determine the distance that separates the two cars to the nearest foot. [4 points] 35 62 0 ft 21. Evin is flying a kite such that the string is at an angle of elevation of 2. Initially, she lets 35 ft of string out and the kite rests at point. The wind begins to blow and she lets out an additional 20 feet of string resulting with the kite at point.
