Suppose you walk 17 m straight west and then 26.5 m straight north. What is the compass direction, in degrees measured West of North, of a line connecting your starting point to your final position

Respuesta :

Answer:32.7

Explanation:

You must first make a right triangle with the two legs being 17 m west and 26.5 m north. To find the degree measurement west of north you must find the angle between the north leg and the hypotenuse. then just use inverse tangent of (17/26.5) which is 32 .7 degrees
