Question 89040: Can someone tell me if this is correct, and also I need to round it to the nearest tenth but I don't know how.......A plane with an airspeed of 450 mph if flying in the direction N35degrees West....im supposed to express the vector in terms of i&j......
my answer is -450sin35i + 450cos35j

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I think N35 degrees W is an angle of 135 degrees
If your i corresponds to horizontal motion and your j corresponds to vertical
motion you might want an answer of 450(icos(135) + jsin(135))
