Ahiker walls 9.4 miles at an angle of 60 degrees south of west. find the west and south components of the walk

Explanation:

Given that, a hiker walls 9.4 miles at an angle of 60 degrees south of west. We need to find the west and south components of the walk.

From the attached figure, it is clear that, the west component of the walk is given by :

The south component of the walk is given by :

So, the west and south components of the walk are 4.7 miles and 8.14 miles respectively. Hence, this is the required solution.

Ax= -4.7 miles

Ay= -8.1
