While playing football, Chris runs 4.5 m at 20⁰ south of west. If an opponent was trying to tackle him how far west and south would he have to run to reach him?

South = 1.5m

West =4.2m

Explanation:

Kindly see attached a rough draft of the situation

Step one

Given data

From the sketch the direction of the player is along the resultant of the triangle, corresponding to the Hypotenuse

Step two:

Hence for an opponent to tackle him towards the south, he must be at

sin θ= opp/hyp

sin 20=x/4.5

x=sin 20*4.5

x=0.342*4.5

x= 1.5m

Also, for an opponent to tackle him towards the south, he must be at

cos θ= adj/hyp

cos 20=y/4.5

y=cos 20*4.5

y=0.93*4.5

y= 4.2m

ok

explanation:

can u provide the graph and if its not possible

then i can tell u the segment where the

average time interval starts degrading is the segment where the car is slowing down
