10/9/14 Adding Vectors


A pilot starts to fly due north for 20 km, then, he turns left (20 degrees West of North) for 5 km.  He finally turns around completely (70 degrees East of South) for another 20 km.  What is his final displacement?  (remember, displacement has both a magnitude and a direction)

7.82 km, 49 degrees North of Ea
