The Sine and Cosine Ratios
\n" ); document.write( "A certain jet is capable of a steady 20 degree climb. How much altitude does the jet gain when it moves 1km throughthe air? Answer to the nearest 50m.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "1 km = 1000 meters = the hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "Vertical change = 1000*sin(20) = 342 meters
\n" ); document.write( "--> 350 meters to the nearest 50
