Question 1005163: A race-car starts at the 3 o'clock position and drives counterclockwise on a circular track with a radius 2.9 miles.
How many miles above the horizontal diameter is the car when the angle swept out has a measure of 2.9 radians?
Please answer and explain, thanks. Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! By definition, radians is a point
180 degrees from the 3 o'clock position is the angle in radians
between the 9 o'clock position and radians radians
----------------------
The car is .239 miles above the horizontal
This is the sin of the angle in radians times
the radius in miles
