Chapter 2.4, Problem 30PS
Distance and Bearing Problems 27 through 32 involve directions in the form of bearing, which we defined in this section. Remember that bearing is always measured from a north-south line.
A man wandering in the desert walks 2.3 miles in the direction S 310 W. He then turns
90° and walks 3.5 miles in the direction N 59° W. At that time, how far is he from his starting point, and what is his bearing from his starting point?
