∙ 14y agoFirst of all, 2 deg 40' = (8/3) degrees
remember soh-cah-toa...
sin(angle) = opposite Side Distance / hypotenuse Distance.
cos(angle) = adjacent Side Distance / hypotenuse Distance.
tan(angle) = opposite side distance / adjacent side distance...
the sides correspond to their location relative to the angle being measured.. knowing the hypotenuse distance, and the angle. you have:
cos(8/3) = your horizontal / hypotenuse length.
thus:
horizontal Distance = cos(8/3) * hypotenuse length = 78.68

Slope is determined by rise and run. Or the distance between two points, the distance in height (vertical distance) and the lateral distance apart (level distance). If a step has a riser of 6" and a tread of 12", the rise (6") over the run (12") would then become 6/12 or a slope of 45 degrees. 12/12 would be vertical and 0/12 would be horizontal. From horizontal to vertical is 90 degrees. So 6/12 is one half, of 90degrees which is 45 degrees.
20 degrees is a measure of angular displacement. This cannot be converted to lateral (horizontal) displacement.
other horizontal lines? which would be 180 degrees i guess.
A corresponding angle is related to a primary angle. Subtract the primary angle measure from 180 degrees, to obtain the corresponding angle measure.
If you keep th velocity of projection and change the angle of projection from 75 degrees to 45 degrees what will happen to the horizontal distance the projectile travels? if you finish the nova net lesson you might learn the answer! It will travel a greater distance!
In projectile motion, the horizontal distance will be at its maximum when the angle is 45 degrees. At this angle, the vertical and horizontal components of the initial velocity are equal, resulting in maximum range.
Lines of longitude are vertical but they measure horizontal distance(In degrees,not kilometers or miles)between Greenwich Mean Time(GMT) and you so the lines are vertical,not horizontal. However,longitude measures horizontal distance,not vertical distance.
The optimal launch angle for the longest distance of a projectile is 45 degrees in the absence of air resistance. This angle allows for the greatest horizontal distance because it balances the vertical and horizontal components of the projectile's velocity.
To calculate pitch, measure the distance between corresponding points on adjacent windings in a helical coil and divide by the number of complete turns within that distance. This will give you the pitch of the helix, which represents the axial distance the coil advances in one full rotation.
Lines of latitude are horizontal lines that run parallel to the equator. They measure the distance north or south of the equator in degrees.
47. The tropics are at latitudes corresponding to the Earth's axial tilt (23.5 degrees), so the distance between them is twice that.
Smaller angles will result in a larger horizontal velocity and smaller vertical velocity. The times of flight will also be shorter since it's closer to the ground. Larger angles have a larger vertical velocity and smaller horizontal velocity. Time of flight will be much longer since it is higher above the ground. As for distance, 45 degrees will result in the greatest distance and for every distance before the furthest one there is an angle above 45 degrees and an angle below 45 degrees that will result in that distance.
A projectile has maximum horizontal range when it is launched at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal. This angle allows for the ideal balance between the horizontal and vertical components of the projectile's velocity, ensuring that it travels the farthest distance before hitting the ground.
Lines of latitude run east-west as circles parallel (or horizontal lines) to the equator. Latitude measures the angle in degrees north or south from the equator where the equator is located at 0 degrees.
A trajectory is the angle made with the horizontal when a projectile is fired. Suppose the projectile is a cannon ball. Assuming air is frictionless, that cannon ball will travel the greatest distance if the trajectory is 45 degrees from horizontal.
