Geometry related physics problem I need to know how to solve
Geometry related physics problem. I need to know how to solve for the vertical distance between A & B to get a total perpindicular distance from A to C
Solution
angle = 30 deg
applying sine rule to find the vertical distance AB
sin 30 = perpendicular / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = radius of the circle = 1.4m
1/2 = perpendicular / 1.4
perpendicular AB = .7 m
