To the nearest 0.01 degree, what angle of descent (angle of depression) must a plane 50 horizontal miles from the airport and at

an altitude of 20,000 feet make for it's final approach? -- I need the equation and the answer for this problem. thanks

20,000÷50=
$20000 \div 50 = 400ft$
The plane needs to descend at 400 ft per mile.

At 40 degrees?

Find the slope of the line passing through the pairs of points and describe the line as rising, falling, horizontal or vertical.

Anna [14]

Answer:

$a.\ m=2,\ \text{the line is rising}\\\\b.\ m=-\dfrac{5}{4},\ \text{the line is falling}\\\\c.\ m=0,\ \text{the line is horizontal}\\\\d.\ m\ is\ unde fined,\ \text{the line is vertical}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

If

m > 0, then a line is rising

m < 0, then a line is falling

m = 0, then a line is horizontal

m is undefined, then a line is vertical

<h2>a.</h2>

(2, 1) and (4, 5)

$m=\dfrac{5-1}{4-2}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2>0\to\text{rising}$

<h2>b.</h2>

(-1, 0) and (3, -5)

$m=\dfrac{-5-0}{3-(-1)}=\dfrac{-5}{4}=-\dfrac{5}{4}$

<h2>c.</h2>

(2, 1) and (-3, 1)

$m=\dfrac{1-1}{-3-2}=\dfrac{0}{-5}=0\to\text{horizontal}$

<h2>d.</h2>

(-1, 2) and (-1, -5)

$m=\dfrac{-5-2}{-1-(-1))}=\dfrac{-7}{0}\ \text{UNDEFINED}\to\text{vertical}$
