You are to make four straight-line moves over a flat desert floor, starting at the origin of an xy coordinate system and ending at the xy coordinates (−134 m, 26 m). The x component and y component of your moves are the following, respectively, in meters: (20 and 60), then (b_x and −70.0), then (−20.0 and c_y), then (−61.0 and −68.0).

(a) What is component b_x?

(b) What is component c_y?

(c) What is the the magnitude of the overall displacement?

(d) What is the angle of the overall displacement?
? counterclockwise from the +x-axis

2. A displacement vector r in the xy plane is 34 m long and directed at angle ? = 44° as shown below. Determine the x and y components of the vector.
