Concept explainers
Two planes flying at the same altitude are on a course to fly over a control tower. Plane
a. Write parametric equations that model the path of each plane as a function of the time
b. Determine the times required for each plane to reach a point directly above the tower. Based on these results, will the planes crash?
c. Write the distance between the planes as a function of the time
d. How close do the planes pass? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile.
