Instruments in airplane A indicate that, with respect to the air, the plane is headed 30° north of east with an air speed of 340.00 mi/h. At the same time, radar on ship Bindicates that the relative velocity of the plane with respect to the ship is 300.00 mi/h in the direction 33° north of east. Given, the ship is steaming due south at 12 mi/h. 30° 12 mi/h Determine the velocity of the airplane. The velocity of the airplane is mi/h at an angle of
