PLEASE ANSWER ASAP: Find the angle that will allow the defender to tackle the ball carrier most efficiently. Also tell how far from the goal line the tackle will occur.

A.) 51 degree

B.) 26.5 yards

Explanation:

Let assume that time is constant.

The distance between the defender and the ball carrier is 20.6 yard.

Speed = distance/time

6.2 = 20.6/t

t = 20.6/6.2

t = 3.32 s

The distance the defender can cover will be

Distance = 5.1 × 3.32 = 16.95 yards

The angle that will allow the defender to tackle the ball carrier most efficiently will be

Tan Ø = 20.6/16.95

Ø = tan^-1 (1.21568627)

Ø = 50.55

Ø = 51 degree.

The distance from the goal line the tackle will occur will be found by using pythagorean theorem

D = root( 20.6^2 + 16.69^2)

Distance = 26.5 yards

true is the correct answer
