Can someone help me figure out the last part of this question I already answered the question but just need to know how to answer this. I need to know which postulate or theorem does my answer based off the picture demonstrates.

Ship A receives a distress signal from the southwest and ship B receives a distress signal from the same vessel from the north. At what location is the vessel in distress located? Describe how you arrived at your conclusion using complete sentences. Which theorem or postulate does this demonstrate? You must show all work and steps in order to receive credit.

Here's my answer : Okay so to get started the ship is n which is north of ship b that's on the line x = 1. The exact distance from b is secured by a which is ship a & with that being said based off the diagram this would mean the point of intersection with the respective bearings from a & b. Also the approximation would be most likely (1, 2).
