Answer:
the distance would be between them after 1/2 hours is 100m
Step-by-step explanation:
distance covered by first plane -
1000×1/2 = 500
distance covered by second one -
1200×1/2 = 600
therefore, 600-500 = 100

Distance travelled by aeroplane in 3/2 hours towards north direction
= 1000*3/2
= 500*3
= 1500 km
So AB = 1500
Distance travelled by aeroplane in 3/2 hours towards north direction
= 1200*3/2
= 600*3
= 1800 km
So BC = 1800
Now from Pythagoras theorem
=> AC2 = AB2 + BC2
=> AC2 = (1500)2 + (1800)2
=> AC2 = 2250000 + 3240000
=> AC2 = 5490000
=> AC = √5490000
=> AC =√(32 * 1002 * 61)
=> AC = 3*100* √61
=> AC = 300√61
So distance between two planes after 3/2 hours = 300√61 km
