Question 325023: you and a friend take separate vacation. leaving the same airport, you fly 100 miles due west, then 50 miles at a 20 degrees NE angle. your friend flies 100 miles due east, then 50 miles 30 degree SW angle. which of you vacation further from the airport? Answer by Fombitz(13828) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Could you specify 20 degrees east of north or 20 degrees north of east?
Also 30 degrees south of west or 30 degrees west of south?
It's unclear from the setup and will make a difference in the answer.
