On a training flight, a student pilot flies from Lincoln, Nebraska,
to Clarinda, Iowa, next to St. Joseph, Missouri, and then to
Manhattan, Kansas shown below. The directions are shown
relative to north: 0 is north, 90 is east, 180 is south, and 270 is
west. Use the method of components to find following:
(a) The distance she has to fly from Manhattan to get back to
Lincoln
(b) The direction (relative to north) she must fly to get there.
(c) Illustrate your solutions with a vector diagram.
