A motorboat traveled along a triangular course having sides of lengths 2 kilometers, 4 kilometers, and 3 kilometers, respectively. The first side was traversed in the direction N20°W and the second in a direction S θ°W , where θ° is the degree measure of an acute angle. Approximate, to the nearest minute, the direction in which the third side was traversed.

A boat radioed a distress call to a Coast Guard station. At the time of the call, a vector A from the station to the boat had a magnitude of 45.0 km and was directed 15.0° east of north. A vector from the station to the point where the boat was later found is B = 30.0 km, 15.0° north of east. What are the components of the vector from the point where the distress call was made to the point where the boat was found? In other words, what are the components of vector C=A? x component y component O 40.6 km, east 35.7 km, north O 35.7 km, west 17.4 km, north 0 17.3 km, west 51.2 km, south O 17.3 km, east 35.7 km, south O 40.6 km, east 51.2 km, south
