A bird flies 2.8 due west and then 2.7 due north. Another bird flies 2.7 due west and 2.8 due north. What is the angle between t
Elenna [48]
Assume a 2D plane and both the birds start at origin. +X is east, -X is west, +Y is North, -Y is South. 
So, after travel position of bird1 is (-2.8, 2.7) and bird2 is (-2.7,2.8);
slope of bird1 is 2.8/2.7
slope of bird2 is 2.7/2/8
Now we have two solpes b1 and b2
formula = (b2-b1)/(1+b1*b2);

Set up the problem with the conversion rates as fractions where when you multiply the units cancel out leaving the desired units behind.

( \frac{ 5 cm}{1 sec} ) *( \frac{1m }{100cm})*( \frac{1km}{1000m} )*( \frac{1mi}{1.6km} ) = 0.00003125 mi/sec \\  \\ ( \frac{0.00003125 mi}{1sec} )*( \frac{60sec}{1min} )*( \frac{60min}{1hr} )=0.1125 mi/hr
