Question

an aircraft flies due north from airport(x) to (y) and then flies due west to (z). if (y) is equidistant from(x) and (z) calculate the bearing of (x) from (z)​

Answer 1

Answer:

distance between x,y and y,z are equal.

Distance between two points =

(xy)^2 = (yz)^2

(x-y)2=(y-z)2

x2+y2-2xy=y2+z2-2yz

=> x2-2x=z2-2z

hence solved
