A ripple tank demonstrates the effect of two water waves being added together. The
two waves are described by h = 8 cost and h = 6 sin t, where t ∈ [0, 2π) is in seconds and h is
the height in millimeters above still water. Find the maximum height of the resultant wave and the
value of t at which it occurs.
