### Problem Statement:
A ship travels N38°E for 500 nautical miles. In component form, which vector represents this displacement?
---
### Diagram Explanation:
The diagram displayed on the left shows a vector originating from the origin of a coordinate system, representing the movement of the ship. The coordinate system is aligned with North-South and East-West axes.
- **Axes Labels**: The vertical axis is labeled "North" and the horizontal axis is labeled "East."
- **Vector**: The red arrow represents the direction and magnitude of the ship's travel. It points from the origin at an angle of 38° to the east of north (N38°E), extending up to a distance of 500 nautical miles, represented by the label "500 NM."
---
### Question Options:
Below the diagram, there are several options provided to choose from, which represent the components of the vector in terms of trigonometric functions:
1. **Option 1**:
\[
(500 \cdot \tan(36°), 500 \cdot \tan(54°))
\]
2. **Option 2**:
\[
(500 \cdot \cos(36°), 500 \cdot \sin(36°))
\]
3. **Option 3**:
\[
(500 \cdot \cos(54°), 500 \cdot \sin(54°))
\]
4. **Option 4**:
\[
(500 \cdot \sin(36°), 500 \cdot \cos(36°))
\]
5. **Option 5**:
\[
(500 \cdot \sin(54°), 500 \cdot \cos(54°))
\]
