A helicopter is heading S 48° W (i.e. direction angle of 222°) with an airspeed of 29 mph, and the wind is blowing S 22° E (i.e. direction angle of 292°) at 13 mph. Round all numbers in your answers below to 2 places after the decimal point. (a) Find the velocity vector that represents the true heading of the helicopter. Type your answer in component form, <a, b> (where a and b represent some numbers). Velocity vector of helicopter's true heading: (b) Find the helicopter's speed relative to the ground (in mph). Helicopter's speed = mph (c) Find the helicopter's drift angle, d. (The drift angle is the number of degrees that the helicopter will end up flying off-course.) 8 degrees
