PART A

On a certain day last summer, the Snohomish river near Highway 522 was flowing roughly 1.6 miles per hour in a direction of 38 degrees east of south. Evangeline took her red kayak out that day and decided to paddle due east as the picture below shows at a speed of 3.4 miles per hour. (This means that the front of her kayak is always facing east during her trip.)

Of course, her actual path was not due east as the river was "pushing" her southeast.

At what angle was Evangeline's actual path?

She was actually traveling (to someone who is watching from the sky)
   degrees SOUTH of EAST

Round to threee decimal place
