A rock is thrown from the top of a tall building. The distance in feet between the rock in the ground t seconds after it is thrown is given by d= -16t^2 -2t + 673. How long after the rock is thrown is it 340 feet from the ground?

i can you, i love poetry

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
