(C) Let the starting point be the origin $(0,0)$.First displacement vector $\vec{d_1} = 6 \cos(45^o) \hat{i} + 6 \sin(45^o) \hat{j} = 6(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}) \hat{i} + 6(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}) \hat{j} = 3\sqrt{2} \hat{i} + 3\sqrt{2} \hat{j}$.Second displacement vector $\vec{d_2} = 4 \cos(135^o) \hat{i} + 4 \sin(135^o) \hat{j} = 4(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}) \hat{i} + 4(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}) \hat{j} = -2\sqrt{2} \hat{i} + 2\sqrt{2} \hat{j}$.Resultant displacement $\vec{R} = \vec{d_1} + \vec{d_2} = (3\sqrt{2} - 2\sqrt{2}) \hat{i} + (3\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{2}) \hat{j} = \sqrt{2} \hat{i} + 5\sqrt{2} \hat{j}$.Magnitude $|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{(\sqrt{2})^2 + (5\sqrt{2})^2} = \sqrt{2 + 50} = \sqrt{52} \, km$.Angle with east direction $	heta = 	an^{-1}(\frac{R_y}{R_x}) = 	an^{-1}(\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}) = 	an^{-1}(5)$.

$A$ car travels $6 \, km$ at an angle of $45^o$ north of east and then travels a distance of $4 \, km$ at an angle of $135^o$ north of east. How far is the final point from the starting point? What angle does the straight line joining its initial and final position make with the east direction?
