Anthony's little brother gets on a carousel that is 8 meters in diameter. At the start of the ride, his brother is 3 meters from the fence to the ride. How far will his brother be from the fence after the carousel rotates 240°?

9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Carousel diameter = 8m

Radius of carousel = 8m / 2 = 4m

From the attached picture :

xo = d ; from the diagram attached ;

Using Pythagoras :

Cosθ = Adjacent / hypotenus

Cos 60 = d / 4

0.5*4 = d

d = 2

d = 2m

d + length of Radius + initial distance from fence

2m + 4m + 3m = 9m

answer: huh
