A pilot sets out from an airport and heads in the direction N 20° E, flying at 200 mph. After one hour, he makes a course correction and heads in the direction N 40° E. Half an hour later, engine trouble forces him to make anemergency landing. Find the distance between the airport and his final landing point.
Suppose a = 9 and A = 20 degrees.
A drone operator has his drone take off and then start flying due north. The
drone flies 45.3 meters when it collides with a flying bird. The impact makes the
drone veer 24.5° east. It then flies another 22.6 meters before its emergency
auto-landing program causes it to land.
How far, d, and in what direction, e, must the operator walk to retrieve his
drone?
