Question 1137295: jimmy and his uncle left the shore in their boat from point A and continued on this course for 350 meters until they reached point B. After fishing there for awhile, they made a 90-degree turn and continued for 475 meters to point C.

Not clear what is wanted. The information allows the distance from C to A to be computed, since the points make a right triangle.
350^2+475^2=x^2
x=590.02 m distance from A.
The bearing depends upon whether the turn was to the left or to the right.
