0.07 = 2.9a,
a = 0.07/2.9 = 0.024 m/s^2,
d1 = Vo*t + 0.5*at^2,
= 0.12*2.7 + 0.5*0.024*(2.7)^2,
= 0.3481 + 0.0880 = 0.4361 m., E.
0.21 = 2.9a,
a = 0.21 / 2.9 = 0.0724 m/s^2,
d2 = 0.12*2.7 + 0.5*0.0724*(2.7)^2,

deg S. of E. = 300 CCW.
RESULTANT(R)
X = hor = 0.4361 + 0.6120*cos300,
= 0.4361 + 0.306 = 0.7421 m.
Y = ver = 0 + 0.6120*sin300 = -0.530m
tanA = y/x = -0.5300 / 0.7421 = -0.7142
A = -35.5 deg = 35.5 deg S.of E. = 324.5 deg CCW.
R = X + iY = 0.7421 - i0.5300
R = X / cosA = 0.7421 / cos324.5 = 0.9115 m @ 35.5 deg. S.of W.
DISPLACEMENT(D)
D = R - Vo*t,
= (0.7421 - i0.5300) - 0.12*2.7
= 0.7421 - 0.324 - i5300,
= 0.4181 - i0.5300,
tanB = Y / X = -0.5300/0.4181=-1.268,
B = -51.7 Deg = 308.3 deg CCW.
Magnitude = x / cosB = 0.4181 / cos308.3 = 0.6751 m.
Direction = 51.7 deg S. of E.
A duck has a mass of 2.9 kg. As the duck paddles, a force of 0.07 N acts on it in a direction due east. In addition, the current of the water exerts a force of 0.21 N in a direction of 60° south of east. When these forces begin to act, the velocity of the duck is 0.12 m/s in a direction due east. Find the magnitude and direction (relative to due east) of the displacement that the duck undergoes in 2.7 s while the forces are acting. How do you get the direction?

there is absolutely no way its that complicated. and at points it looks like you made up some values. be more clear.
