Answer:

The rate of plane in still air is 834 km/hr and the rate of wind is 80 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

The airplane travels 6032 km in 8 hours against the wind.

So, u -v = \frac{6032}{8} = 754 ........ (1) {Where u is the speed of plane in still air and v is the wind speed}

Again, the airplane travels 7312 km in 8 hours with the wind.

So, u +v=\frac{7312}{8} =914 ........ (2)

Now, adding equations (1) and (2) we get,

2u = 1668

⇒ u = 834 km per hour.

So, from equation (1), we get  

v = u - 754 = 834 - 754 = 80 km per hour.

Therefore, the rate of the plane in still air is 834 km/hr and the rate of wind is 80 km/hr. (Answer)

C. Tan k=31/24<br> D. Cos k= 31/24
lubasha [3.4K]

Hello!

The sin of D would be the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse. As we have no hypotenuse length, neither A or D would work, as the cosine also involves the hypotenuse.

The tangent is the opposite divided by the adjacent. This would be, in terms of D, 24/31. This does not match our option.

In terms of K, the tangent is 31/24.

Therefore, our answer is C) tanK= 31/24

I hope this helps!
