How are quadratic equations represented in a real world situation

one way that you can represent it is for example if someone kick a soccerball.

ax^2+bx+c

ax^2 is a quadratic function which in this senario represents the balls downward movement.

bx is a linear function which in this senario represents the velocity of the ball.

c is the starting point the height that the ball starts at but since the ball would more likely be on the ground this value

would be 0.

your x value represents time and for any x value you plug in gives you the height of the ball.

so quadratics in real life situations are used to show the distance or movement of an object over a certaint period in time.

the equation cos(35) =a/25 can be used to find the length of bc what is the length of bc? round to the nearest tenth
