After being hit with a white ball, the black 8 ball moved 12.78 inches at an angle of 35° N of E from its resting position. Once it strikes the side of the billiard table, it bounced off an angle of 41° W of N and traveled 30.9 inches, and after striking the side of the table again, traveled another 5.030 inches at an angle of 45° S of W before coming to a full stop. How far is the black 8 ball from its original position? H Scale: 0.5 cm = 1.0 inch

After being hit with a white ball, the black 8 ball moved
12.78 inches at an angle of 35° N of E from its resting
position. Once it strikes the side of the billiard table, it
bounced off an angle of 41° W of N and traveled 30.9
inches, and after striking the side of the table again,
traveled another 5.030 inches at an angle of 45° S of W
before coming to a full stop.
