One morning, Connie walks from her house to go to a store that is 500 ft, S 40o W from her house. She starts walking 120 ft, SW; then continues walking 100 ft, 10o S of E; then sees a friend who is 700 ft, 30o N of E from where she is. What is her friend’s location, (magnitude and direction) relative to her house? (Answer: 667.54 ft, 21.79o N of E)

To find the width of a river, a surveyor sets up a transit at point C on one riverbank and sights directly across to point B on the other bank. The surveyor then walks along the bank for a distance of 275 meters to point A. The angle CAB is 57 degrees 28 minutes (57°28’). What is the approximate width of the river? (20-points) 57 28' A 275 m

Satellites When satellites observe Earth, they can scanonly part of Earth’s surface. Some satellites have sensors thatcan measure the angle shown in the figure. Let h representthe satellite’s distance from Earth’s surface, and let r representEarth’s radius. (a) Show that $h=r(\csc \theta-1)$.(b) Find the rate at which $h$ is changing with respect to $\theta$ when$$\theta=30^{\circ} . \text { (Assume } r=4000 \text { miles. })$$
