SUMMARY
Eduardo the samurai toaster traveled 120 meters due north and then 72 meters due west, resulting in a displacement of 139.94 meters. The direction of this displacement is not exactly northwest, as the northward distance exceeds the westward distance. To accurately determine the angle of displacement with respect to north, a diagram should be drawn to visualize the path taken.
