An airplane leaves an airport and flies due west 150 miles and then 170 miles in the direction S 49.17°W. How far is the plane from the airport (round to the nearest mile)? (2 points) PLEASE HELP ASAP 30 POINTS need full explanation and work

299.99 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the plane traveled due west,

The total angle is 49.17 + 90

Represent that with θ

θ = 49.17 + 90

θ = 139.17.

Represent the sides as

A = 170

B = 150

C = unknown

Since, θ is opposite side C, side C can be calculated using cosine formula as;

C² = A² + B² - 2ABCosθ

Substitute values for A, B and θ

C² = 150² + 170² - 2 * 150 * 170 * Cos 139.17

C² = 22500 + 28900 - 51000 * Cos 139.17

C² = 51400 - 51000 (−0.7567)

C² = 51400 + 38,591.7

C² = 89,991.7

Take Square Root of both sides

C = 299.9861663477167

C = 299.99 miles (Approximated)

Hence, the distance between the plane and the airport is 299.99 miles

8121 because

130,000 divided by 16 is 8121

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent
