An airplane left Miami, FL. At the same time another plane left Santiago, Chile. The two planes flew toward each other at rates

of 625 mph and 575 mph. If Miami and Santiago are 4200 miles apart, how long will it take until the planes pass each other?

To solve the above question we use the concept of relative speed.
The rates of the two planes are 625 mph and 575 mph. 
Relative speed will be:
[speed of plane A]+[speed of plane B]
=625+575
=1,200 mph
Distance=4200 miles
Thus the time taken for them to meet will be:
Time=distance/speed
=4200/1200
=3.5 hours
We therefore conclude that the planes met after 3.5 hours

State one form of the Law of Cosines and provide a trick for writing the other two forms and explain when Law of Cosines should
Yuki888 [10]

Solving for <em>Angles</em>

\displaystyle \frac{a^2 + b^2 - c^2}{2ab} = cos∠C \\ \frac{a^2 - b^2 + c^2}{2ac} = cos∠B \\ \frac{-a^2 + b^2 + c^2}{2bc} = cos∠A

* Do not forget to use the <em>inverse</em> function towards the end, or elce you will throw your answer off!

Solving for <em>Edges</em>

\displaystyle b^2 + a^2 - 2ba\:cos∠C = c^2 \\ c^2 + a^2 - 2ca\:cos∠B = b^2 \\ c^2 + b^2 - 2cb\:cos∠A = a^2

You would use this law under <em>two</em> conditions:

  • One angle and two edges defined, while trying to solve for the <em>third edge</em>
  • ALL three edges defined

* Just make sure to use the <em>inverse</em> function towards the end, or elce you will throw your answer off!

_____________________________________________

Now, JUST IN CASE, you would use the Law of Sines under <em>three</em> conditions:

  • Two angles and one edge defined, while trying to solve for the <em>second edge</em>
  • One angle and two edges defined, while trying to solve for the <em>second angle</em>
  • ALL three angles defined [<em>of which does not occur very often, but it all refers back to the first bullet</em>]

* I HIGHLY suggest you keep note of all of this significant information. You will need it going into the future.

I am delighted to assist you at any time.

If gas is $2.45 and you pay $ 12.00 how many gallons of gas do you get ?
attashe74 [19]
Gas is 2.45 per gallon.  So if we pay $12 we get 12÷2.45 gallons:

12 ÷ 2.45 ≈ 4.90 gallons.

You get roughly 4.90 gallons.
