A yacht starts from a harbour and sails for a distance of 11 km in a straight line. The yacht then makes a turn to port (left) of 38˚ and sails for 7 km in a straight line in this new direction until it arrives at a small island. Draw a diagram that shows the path taken by the yacht and calculate the distance from the harbour to the island.
