Homework Statement
The rear window in a car is approximately a rectangle, 1.3 m wide and 0.30 m high. The inside rear-view mirror is 0.62 m from the driver's eyes, and 1.58 m from the rear window. What are the minimum dimensions for the rear-view mirror if the driver is to be able to see the entire width and height of the rear window in the mirror without moving her head?
Homework Equations
None really - other than regular geometry stuff like tan theta = y/x, etc.
The Attempt at a Solution
I have none, I've been trying to draw this thing and make triangles or something but I'm completely lost.
Thanks in advance for any help!
