Askier descends a mountain at an angle of 35.0º to the horizontal. if the mountain is 235 m long, what are the horizontal and vertical components of the skier's displacement?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of the mountain, h = 235 m

A skier descends a mountain at an angle of 35º to the horizontal,

We need to find the horizontal and vertical components of the skier's displacement.

Horizontal component,                                    

Vertical component,                                    

Hence, this is the required solution.
