Question 955591: 2. A rope is tied to the bow of a boat, 3 feet lower than a loop on a dock. The rope runs through the loop.
a. Find the distance from the boat to the dock as a function of the length of the rope from the loop to the boat.
I tried this
A^2 + B^2 =C^2
A^2 + 3^2 =C^2
A^2 =c^2 - 9
sqrt (A^2 ) = sqrt(C^2-9)
A = sqrt(C^2-9)
I don't know where to go from here! And what to do with (b.)
b. Now, if the length of rope is 10 � 2*t, find the position of the boat as a function of t.
