Answer:

a)  [tex]h=286.8ft[/tex]

b)  [tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=5.7ft/s[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Angle [tex]\theta=35[/tex]

a)

Slant height [tex]h_s=500ft[/tex]

Generally the trigonometric equation for Height is mathematically given by

[tex]h=h_ssin\theta[/tex]

[tex]h=500sin35[/tex]

[tex]h=286.8ft[/tex]

b)

Rate of release

[tex]\frac{dl}{dt}=10ft/sec[/tex]

Generally the trigonometric equation for Height is mathematically given by

[tex]h=lsin35[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{dl}{dt}sin35[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=10sin35[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=5.7ft/s[/tex]
