Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.

Answer to Problem 36E

424.24 miles

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Let the two planes be X and Y .

Speed of each plane = 110 mph.

X flies 60° east of north.

Y flies 40° east of south.

  t=3 hours

Calculation:

First sketch the given condition as shown below.

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 7.7, Problem 36E

The angle of flight path (θ)=80° .

The distance between flight paths for 3 hours is as follows:

  d=speed×time=110(3)=330 miles

Use the laws of cosines to find the distance of the flight after 3 hours as follows:

  c2=a2+b2−2abcosθx2=3302+3302−2(330)(330)cos80°x2=179979.4269x=424.24 miles

Thus, the distance between the planes after the 3 hours is 424.24 miles.
