Consider a map oriented so that the x axis runs east–west (with east being the "positive" direction) and y runs north–south (with north "positive"). A person drives 13 km to the west, then turns and drives 43 km to the south. Find the magnitude and the direction of the total movement of the driver.
Express the direction as an angle measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis.
magnitude _____km
direction_______ °

The map below shows that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00° north of east from Dallas, and that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0° west of north from Atlanta. Assuming the Earth may be approximated as flat across this map, what is the displacement from Dallas to Chicago? Find its magnitude (in mi) and direction (in degrees) as measured counterclockwise from due east of Dallas.
