A plane leaves an airport and flies South 58 Degrees East for 2 hours, then changes course to South 43 Degrees West and flies for 3 hours. How far away is the plane from the airport if it keeps a constant speed of 500km/h? Draw a diagram and solve to the nearest km.
I got 1636.32 km, I used cosine with angle 79 and the two side lengths 1000 and 1500. Correct answer? If not how do I do it?
