The eastern component of the plane's displacement is 592.35 m.
The given parameters;
- the resultant of the plane displacement = 599 m
- the northern component of this displacement, Y = 89 m
- Let the eastern component of this displacement = X
The eastern component of the plane's displacement is calculated by applying Pythagoras theorem as follows;
X² + Y² = 599²
X² + 89² = 599²
X² = 599² - 89²
X² = 350880
X = √350880
X = 592.35 m
Thus, the eastern component of the plane's displacement is 592.35 m
