The answer is 382.52 mph, 3°45' west of south. I just don't know how to find this answer.
@thomaster @myininaya @Nurali anyone?
Well. I assume this is dealing with vectors?
Yes
It says that an airplane flies 425 mph south. Meaning 180 degrees from the origin, straight down. So you'd draw a line and put 425 next to it.|dw:1398631575334:dw|
