Ahot air balloon is one mile above sea level when it begins to climb at a constant angle of 4° for the next 50 ground miles. about how far above sea level is the hot air balloon after its climb?

3.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent function applies here.  The opposite side would be the unknown; the adj. side would be 50 miles.  The angle is 4°.

Then:

              height

tan 4° =

               50 mi

so that the height is (50 mi)(tan 4°) = 3.5 miles

v = 1/3 a^2h

step-by-step explanation:

if the height is 57.7cm and the height of the slant edge is 18.2cm, then the volume is 1/3 a^2h.
