Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

in 4 hrs

NW plane moves=415*4=1660 miles

East plane moves=327*4=1308 miles

both directions makes angle=90+45=135° with each other.

so we have to find the third side of a triangle opposite 135°

cos~135=\frac{1660^2+1308^2-x^2}{2 \times 1660 \times 1308} \\-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} \times 2\times 1660 \times 1308=2755600+1710864-x^2\\ x^2=4466464+2171280\sqrt{2} \approx 4466464+3070654 \approx 7537118\\x=\sqrt{7537118} \approx 2745 miles

What is the purpose of multiplying by the conjugate of a complex denominator when finding the quotient of complex numbers?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

C: Radicals in the denominators of fractions are considered unsimplified. You need to multiply a fraction by a value that removes radicals or imaginary numbers in the denominator, which is the complex conjugate of the denominator.
