Question 1163484: A yacht sets off from the port in Abu Dhabi and travels 350 km at 1450 towards the Persian Gulf and then cruising north for another 180 km, before finally heading in the direction of N 250E for another 210 km towards the port in Iran. Demonstrate the movement of yacht using a suitable diagram and then find its net distance from the starting point and the end point.

What does "at 1450" mean? Are you using military time to express 2:50 PM? And, if so, what difference does that make to the problem? If you meant a true bearing of 145 degrees and were using the zero for a degree sign (a nonsensical thing to do, don't ever do it again please) then the boat would have sailed through the desert for the first leg ending up about 70 clicks NNW of Muscat in Oman. So your problem makes no sense. Repost with the correct information that English speaking people, i.e. almost all of the tutors on this site, can read and understand. If necessary, find a person that speaks English better than you do and ask for help writing the question.
