Question:

A river flowing at 1.50 m/s runs over an 80 m high cliff and into a lake below.
a. Write and graph parametric equations to model the water's path from the cliff to the lake.
b. Use the trace feature to approximate the time it takes for the water to reach the surface of the lake. Then find the distance from the bottom of the cliff to the bottom of the waterfall.
c. Write an equation and solve it to find the time and distance in 22b.
