In google paste:
An aeroplane flies from town X on a bearing of N45'E to another town Y, a distance of 200km. It then changes course and flies to another town Z on a bearing of S60'E. If Z is directly east of X, calculate to 3sf, the distance from X to Z and the distance from Y to XZ.
When you see list of results go on:

Draw triangle XYZ,
Law of sine: XY/sin45 = YZ/sin30,
200/sin45 = YZ/sin30,
200 = YZ*sin45/sin30,
YZ = 141.4 km.
200/sin45 = XZ/sinY,
200/sin45 = XZ/sin105,
XZ = ?.
