Why do airplanes look like they are going slower when they are higher in the sky?

dlinn [17]3 years ago

Our brains judge the speed of objects passing by us through the time taken for them to cross our field of view. Those taking a long time could either be nearby and travelling slowly or faster and further away. And in the case of planes, our brains know that the second interpretation is the right one.

The ratio of two supplementary angles is 1:5. Find the measure of the larger angle?
tigry1 [53]
Okay, I'm actually going to help with this! c:
Okay, to find the answer you must set it up like this: 1x+5x=180. This is because these two angles add up to make up a supplementary angle, which, as you know, is 180. Now, I will show you the steps.
1. 1x+5x=180
2. Put the x into simpler form: 6x=180
3. Now divide 180 by 6 to isolate x. x=30. 
But we're not done.
4. Plug 30 into the equation. 1(30)+5(30)=180. 
Since you only need to find the larger angle, you'd multiply 5 by 30.
Your final answer is 150. Hoped this helped!
