Problem
A private pilot wishes to fly from a city P to a city Q that is 200 km directly north of city P. The airplane will fly with an airspeed of 290 km/h. At the altitude at which the airplane will be flying, there is an cast wind (that is, the wind’s direction is west) with a speed of 50 km/h. What direction should the pilot point the airplane to fly directly from city P to city Q? How long will the trip take?
