Over a 24-hour period, the tide in a harbor can be modeled by one period of a sinusoidal function. The tide measures 4.35 ft at midnight, rises to a high of 8.3 ft, falls to a low of 0.4 ft, and then rises to 4.35 ft by the next midnight.

What is the equation for the sine function f(x), where x represents time in hours since the beginning of the 24-hour period, that

models the situation?

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry.how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.
