You need some units for distance.
100E= 295@35 NofW+ Far
100E=295cos35 W + 295sin35N + howfar
so how far= East(100+295cos35)+South(295sin35)
100E= 295@35 NofW+ Far
100E=295cos35 W + 295sin35N + howfar
so how far= East(100+295cos35)+South(295sin35)
the unit of the distance is km but plz can you give me the answer directly
A ship leaves the island of Guam and sails a distance 300 at an angle 41.0 north of west.
