The route followed by a hiker consists of three displacement vectors A, B, and . Vector is along a measured trail and is 1050 m in a direction 15.0° north of east. Vector is not along a measured trail, but the hiker uses a compass and knows that the direction is 26.0° east of south. Similarly, the direction of vector is 34.0° north of west. The hiker ends up back where she started, so the resultant displacement is zero, or A + B + O. Find the magnitudes of (a) vector and (b) vector Ĉ. =
