While vacationing in the prairie you go on a nature walk. First you walk 260 m south, then a coyote chases you 180 m southwest, then you walk 140 m in a direction 30° east of north. First draw an accurate graphical representation of your motion using a ruler and a protractor. Then use either trigonometry or components to find the displacement (in m) that will return you to your starting point by the most direct route.
