Let a = speed of the plane A, and b = speed of plane B.
(Assume that the net effect of the wind is negligible.)
From the first sentence, the distance between A and B after each travels for 1 hour is a + b miles. From the second sentence, after 45 minutes, or 0.75 hour, the distance between A and B is 200 miles. Plane a has traveled 0.75a, while plane B has traveled 0.75b.
Hence a + b = 0.75a + 0.75b +200
==> 0.25(a + b) = 200.
==> a + b = 800.
Therefore planes A and B are 800 miles apart now.

Answer:

<u>800 miles apart</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

0.75a+0.75b=200

0.25(a+b)=200

a+b=800 miles apart

The segments shown below could form a triangle 1 8 8
Marat540 [252]
Yes. 

To form a triangle every side must be smaller in length than the sum of the two other sides. 

For example: sides denoted by a,b,c
for a triangle to form
a<b+c
b<a+c
c<a+b
Thus in the case of the <em>Isosceles </em>triangle with side lengths 1,8,8 the rules aforementioned are fulfilled. This means that a triangle with said side lengths can exist.

m ------> by supplementary angles

Substitute the values and solve for x

8x-1+9x-6=180\°

17x-7=180\°

17x=187\°

x=11\°

Find the value of angle R
