One morning, Connie walks from her house to go to a store that is 500 ft, S 40o W from her house. She starts walking 120 ft, SW; then continues walking 100 ft, 10o S of E; then sees a friend who is 700 ft, 30o N of E from where she is. 1. From her friend’s location, how far and in what direction should Connie walk to finally get to the store? (Ans. 1133.08 ft, 33.83o S of W)
