(a) A man travels from a village X on a bearing of 060° to a village Y which is 20km away. From Y, he travels to a village Z, on a bearing of 195°. If Z is directly east of X, calculate, correct to three significant figures, the distance of :
(i) Y from Z ; (ii) Z from X .
(b) An aircraft flies due South from an airfield on latitude 36°N, longitude 138°E to an airfield on latitude 36°S, longitude 138°E.
(i) Calculate the distance travelled, correct to three significant figures ; (ii) if the speed of the aircraft is 800km per hour, calculate the time taken, correct to the nearest hour.
