A hiker takes a trip which consists of two segments. Path A is 40.7 km long heading 59.1 degrees N of East. Path B is 92.2 km long in a direction 24.5 degrees N of W. Resolve each displacement vector into its components; consider using a table like the one below to orgnanize your results. Use - signs for a westward or southward direction. Then sum the columns to determine the resultant's x- and y-components. Finally determine the magnitude and the direction of the resultant.
