A boat travels at 20 kph due east for one and one-half hours from point P to point A It then travels due north, at the same speed, for three and one-half hours to point B. A. If the boat had originally traveled directly from point P to point B, what would be the distance traveled? B. What is the angle, from true North, that the boat will be traveling from point P to point B, to the nearest degree? P. Mathto.com
