An airplane is flying in still air with an airspeed of 475 miles per hour. the plane is climbing at an angle of 16°. find the rate at which the plane is gaining altitude. (round your answer to four decimal places.)

130.9 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

sine 16 = x / 475 where x = rate of gaining altitude.

x = 475 sin 16

= 130.9 miles per hour.

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
