A pilot wants to fly his plane at an air speed of 135 mph from point A to point B. Point B is 200 miles directly North of point A. Wind with constant speed of 30 mi/h blows from the Northwest to Southeast. What direction should the pilot point his plane in? What is the plane's speed relative to the ground? Hint: draw a vector diagram and add the two vectors together.

Question 15 0 out of 3 points A pilot is flying with an air speed of 63.5. Realizing there is a cross-wind, she is adjusting the heading of the plane to compensate. The pilot wants to fly directly north, but the cross-wind is blowing to the east with a speed of 30.4 relative to the ground. At what angle west of north does the pilot need to aim the plane?
