using the law of cosines, the distance z is
z^2 = 1000^2 + 450^2 - 2*1000*450 cos127°
If the plane started at (0,0) then it ended at (359.4,1271)
Now you can figure the angle θ:
tanθ = 1271/359.4
an aeroplane leaves an airport,flies due north for two hours at 500km/hr.it then flies 450km on a bearing 053.how far is the plane from the airport and what is its bearing from bearing from east
