Homework Statement
I set out on a compass heading of 15.0 degrees west of south for 23.4km.
I turn 20.5 degrees east of south and travel another 32.0km.
What is my displacement?
Homework Equations
I'm not sure if there are any. But these should help.
Ax = A cos θ
Ay = A sin θ
Bx = B cos θ
By = B sin θ
The Attempt at a Solution
Alright, I'm not sure at all of this but:
Ax = -23.4km cos 75 = -6.05
Ay = -23.4 sin 75 = -22.6
That's all I've come up with. Can someone tell me if I'm doing this right, and guide me through the process of finding a solution?
Thanks in advance.
