An airplane flies between two points on the ground that are 500 km apart. The destination is directly north of the origination of the flight. The plane flies with an air speed of 110 m/s. If a constant wind blows at 20.0 m/s due east during the flight, what direction must the plane fly relative to the north to arrive at the destination?
