You are sitting at an outdoor café, minding your own business, when a mischievous squirrel steals your croissant. The squirrel then runs away with your croissant in the following fashion:
The squirrel runs North for 12m
Then, the squirrel turns and runs East for 17m
If you were to draw a straight line to the squirrel at this point, what angle would that line make relative to the positive X-axis (which is East on the compass)?
The squirrel then runs up to the top of a tree, which is 15m tall. What is the exact straight-line distance now between you and the squirrel (and, more importantly, your croissant)?
