Draw a triangle with opposite and adjacent equal. What's the hypotenuse?
I have a trig worksheet to do and i am stuck on question 3 and 6.
Question 3 states: Through how many radians does a wheel of radius one travel if it travels 5 feet down the road.
I know the circumference of the circle is 2pi. but how do i find out how many times does it rotate?
Question 6 states: If the , what is and what is ?
i know that and that and . So would everything be 1? 1=hypotenuse/adjacent/opposite?
I have attached my one page worksheet if you did not understand. Also if you could make sure the other problems are correct, then that would be great.
I greatly appreciate everybodies help.
What you need to know here is that after one rotation, the wheel has travelled a distance equal to the circumference (we usually assume in these problems that the wheel does not slip against the ground)Question 3 states: Through how many radians does a wheel of radius one travel if it travels 5 feet down the road.
