The height, h, in feet of the tip of the hour hand of a wall clock varies from 9 feet to 10 feet. which of the following equations can be used to model the height as a function of time, t, in hours? assume that the time at t = 0 is 12:00 a.m. h = 0.5 cosine (startfraction pi over 12 endfraction t) 9.5 h = 0.5 cosine (startfraction pi over 6 endfraction t) 9.5 h = cosine (startfraction pi over 12 endfraction t) 9 h = cosine (startfraction pi over 6 endfraction t) 9

Sagot :

The equation can be used to model the height as a function is[tex]\rm h = 0.5\ cos(\frac{\pi}{6} t)+9.5[/tex]  where t is time, the second option is correct.

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

We know the general equation for the cosine function:

[tex]\rm y = A\ cos(bx-c)+d[/tex]

Where A is the amplitude

We have a wall clock that varies from 9 feet to 10 feet.

The value of 'A' is given by:

[tex]\rm A = \frac{10-9}{2} \Rightarrow 0.5[/tex]

b is the cycle speed, we know:

[tex]\rm T = \frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex]   (T is period)

[tex]\rm12 = \frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex]

[tex]\rm b=\frac{\pi}{6}[/tex]

The value of d is given by:

[tex]\rm d = \frac{10+9}{2}[/tex]

d = 9.5

The equation can be modeled:

[tex]\rm h = 0.5\ cos(\frac{\pi}{6} t)+9.5[/tex]   (c =0 and y =h)

Thus, the equation is  [tex]\rm h = 0.5\ cos(\frac{\pi}{6} t)+9.5[/tex]
