x is the starting weight. x + 0.6x is the increase, and the total is 80.

x + 0.6x = 80
1.6x = 80
x = 50

In order to safely land, the angle that a plane approaches the runway should be no more than 15°. A plane is approaching Ottawa
belka [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  9.5°, yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The distance opposite the angle of elevation is the plane's height, 500 m. The distance adjacent to the angle of elevation is the horizontal distance to the plane, 3 km = 3000 m. Then the angle is found from ...

  tan(α) = 500/3000 = 1/6

  α = arctan(1/6) ≈ 9.46°

The plane is approaching at an angle of 9.46°. It is safe to land, since that angle is less than 15°.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The usual descent angle for most commercial air traffic is 3°. Some airport geography demands it be different (steeper). A higher descent angle can put undue stress on the landing gear.
