Question

At the entrance channel of a harbor, the tidal current has a velocity of 4.94 km/hr in a direction 23.2° south of east. Suppose a ship caught in this current has a speed of 15.6 km/hr relative to the water. If the helmsman keeps the bow of the ship aimed north, what will be the speed of the ship relative to the ground?

I know this is vector addition, but I'm sure on which steps I need to take first.
