The figure shows a small plane flying at a speed of 184
miles per hour on a bearing of N40°E The wind is
blowing from west to east at 42 miles per hour. The
figure indicates that v represents the velocity of the
plane in still air and w represents the velocity of the
wind
40°
V+w= 188.7
(Simplify your answer. Type an integer or decimal rounded to the ne
c. The magnitude of V + W, called the ground speed of the plane, gives
The ground speed of the plane is miles per hour.
(Simplify your answer. Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
d. The direction angle of v + w gives the plane's true course relative to
O N413°E
O N48.7°E
