Let the position of the airport be A, the point 160 miles north be B, and the point 85 miles east of that (i.e. the location of the plane) be C. Then ABC forms a right-angled triangle. 

<span>tan BAC = 85/160 </span>

<span>BAC = arctan (85/160) </span>

<span>= arctan 0.531 (approx.) </span>

<span>= 27.98° (approx.) </span>

<span>So C is N 27.98° E from A. </span>

<span>The plane should fly S 27.98° W to get to the airport.

Find a set of scalar parametric equations for the line formed by the two intersecting planes. 3x+3y+2z+2=0 2x−3y+2z−2=0
vivado [14]

The normal vectors to the two planes are (3, 3, 2) and (2, -3, 2). The cross product of these will be the direction vector of the line of intersection, (12, -2, -15).

Using x=0, we can find a point on this line by solving the simultaneous equations that remain:

... 3y +2z = -2

... -3y +2z = 2

Adding these, we get

... 4z = 0

... z = 0

so the point we're looking for is (x, y, z) = (0, -2/3, 0). This gives rise to the parametric equations ...

  • x = 12t
  • y = -2/3 -2t
  • z = -15t

By letting t=2/3, we can find a point on the line that has integer coefficients. That will be (x, y, z) = (8, -2, -10).

Then our parametric equations can be written as

  • x = 8 +12t
  • y = -2 -2t
  • z = -10 -15t

A ceramic tile is in the shape of a triangle. The angle measurements of this triangle are 30 degrees, 60 degrees, and 90 degrees
adell [148]
Ratio of 30-60-90 triangles in terms of side lengths is 1-\sqrt{3} &#10;-2

So, the side across the 30-degree angle is 6.25.
Thus, the side across the 90-degree angle (hypotenuse) is 12.5.
