Basketball story
Storyboard Text
- Dorart is really upset and decides that he is going to be a more precise shooter. Since he is 20 feet away from the 8-foot basket, to find the angle of elevation he uses trig again. He figures out that the angle is tan−1 (8/20 ) = 21.8° .

- Since the basket is too high up for Dorart to reach. He decides to find another distance. So he uses another distance that is 15-ft high and his angle to the net is 63°. So he uses trig to figure out how far away he is. He finds out that 15/tan(63) = 7.64. So he is only 7.6 feet away.

- Dorart is a basketballist that is trying his best to score some points. Dorart is standing 20 feet away looking at the net at an angle of 50°. He wonders how high up the basket is. So he uses trig. He finds out that tan(50) ∙ 20 = 23.8. So the basket is 23 feet high.

- Next day at practice, the Warriors had a big game the next day so Dorart had to get his shot down. After shooting on that tall rim, his shot on the normal 10 foot rim is off.
- To get his perfect shot for the Warriors big game the next day, Dorart used the equation 10/sin(50) to find his perfect shooting form and he determined that he had to shoot the ball 13.0 ft towards the basket.
