Calculus
DifferentiationCreate a real-world situation involving bearing angles (pages 633-635), where the solution would
require the use of either the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines. Include a description of the real-
world problem as well as what needs to be determined. (10pts)
Be sure to solve the problem before posting to make sure it's solvable. Don't include your analysis in
your post. Keep this work for later in the discussion and to respond to your classmates.

DifferentiationA hot brick is removed from a kiln at 225°C above room temperature. Over time, the brick cools off. After 2 hours have elapsed, the brick is 30° C above room temperature. Let t be the time in hours since the brick was removed from the kiln. Let y = H(t) be the difference between the brick's and the room's temperature at time t. Assume that H(t) is an exponential function.
How much time elapses before the brick's temperature is 10°C above room temperature? Round your answer to 2 places after the decimal.
