Hi,
I also have a problem with this word problem I have been doing. It asks: An airplane flies 847.5 km at a bearing of 237.3 degrees. How far south and west fo its original position is it? Huh? Please help! Thanks for your time
Brett Hi Brett, I drew a diagram of your triangle. Since you know the measure of the angle G, the form of the Law of Cosines to use is For your second problem I drew a diagram with the initial position of the airplane at the origin O and north in the direction of the positive y-axis. Does this help? Penny To return to the previous page use your browser's back button. |
