In the center of town there is a square park with side length of 30 ft. If a person walks from one corner of the park to the opposite corner how far does the person walk Round to the nearest foot.?
since this is a square with sides 30 feet use Pythagorean theorem to show hypotenuse is 30 x square root of 2 = 42 feet
Suppose an ant walks counterclockwise on the unit circle from the point to the endpoint of the radius that forms an angle of 6.0 radians with the positive horizontal axis How far has the ant walked?
The question does not specify the starting point.
Is Matthew Geriak disabled in real life?
Yes, Matthew Geriak lost his leg above the knee from a cancer operation in 1988. The doctors (oncologists) stated that the chances of him living beyond 5 yrs was less than 30%. It is 2014 at the time of this writing and he is still alive and well. He walks with a prosthesis and never uses crutches or a wheel chair.
A man finds the angle of elevation of the top of a tower to be 30 degrees He walks 85 meter nearer the tower and finds its angle of elevation to be 60 degrees What is the height of the tower?
L/(L-85) = tan60/tan30 = 3 (L = initial distance of man from base of tower)L = 3L-255 so 2L = 255 and L = 127.5 giving height = 127.5 tan30 = 73.6 m
What is the use of geometry divider?
Geometry dividers are used for transferring measurements from one part of the drawing to another. Dividers differ from compasses in that they don't "draw" anything. There is no pencil or pen on the end of them, just two sharp points. When people used to draw things by hand dividers were used to transfer measurements and they take their name from dividing a line into parts. One sets the width of the divider to an approximate size and then "walks" the divider down the line. A little fine adjustment is then done to make sure that the last step ends up at the end of the line and then you can use the points to mark the divisions.
Meg walks 5 blocks south and then turns around and walks 8 blocks back to the north the distance she walks is 13 blocks what is her displacement?
If Meg walks 5 blocks south, then turns around and walks 8 blocks back, her displacement is 3 blocks.

zero
Mike walks 100 meters north then walks 30 meters south. After this he walks another 10 meters north. What is the magnitude of his total displacement during this walk in meters?
The answer is 80 because 100-30+10 is 80.
