Best answer

Solution:

Distance travelled by the plane flying towards north in 

Similarly, distance travelled by the plane flying towards west in 

Let these distances be represented by OA and OB respectively.

Applying Pythagoras theorem,

Distance between these planes after 3/2 hrs, AB = image

Therefore, the distance between these planes will be 300√61km after 3/2hrs.
