trigonometry, find d?

OpenStudy (lucaz):

book says d=351

OpenStudy (lucaz):

theta1 and theta2 are small angles, so sin=tan=theta

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

there are 250 - 200 - and d ?

OpenStudy (lucaz):

yes

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

theta 2 = theta 1 / 1,33

OpenStudy (lucaz):

yep

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

tan theta 1 = y/250 on the right side from the top tan theta 2 = x/200 but this tan theta 2 =x/200 for down angle theta 2 too do you have any choices for distance d. ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

this line 250+200+d wan being a chord of circle ?

OpenStudy (lucaz):

no, just a straight line

OpenStudy (lucaz):

actually, it's a physics problem, we should use senll's law n1sin(theta1)=n2(sin(theta2), n1=air=1, n2=water=1.33

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

than this is a physics problem so try post it there please and probably will get ussefully help there
