Many propeller airplanes have variable pitch propellers, these can be set to a reverse pitch which allows the aircraft to back up on the ground and can also be used to help an aircraft slow down once it has landed on the runway. On a jet there is reverse thrust, which is a deflector(s) which when engaged forces the jet thrust forward past the outside of the jet engine. This also allows a jet to back up on the ground and can be used to slow down a jet once it has landed.

Certain airplanes such as the Harrier, can float still, spin and reverse in mid air. This is due to vector thrust engines that have rotating exhausts and louvers that can be pointed downward
ride in a plane. you would fly a plane
The slope of an inclined plane is found by dividing the rise of the plane by the run of the plane. also the ideal mechanical advantage.
No. A square is a plane figure and conventionally for plane figures symmetry is considered in terms of rotation about a point or an axis (in the plane of the figure) but not a plane outside the plane of the square.
The coordinate plane is sometimes call the Cartesian plane because Rene Descartes is often credited with inventing the coordinate plane and so the coordinate plane is sometimes called the Cartesian plane,in his honor.
