Explanation / Answer

here

the displacement of oasis B , sB = 10 km i

dispalcement 1 , s1 = 23 * ( cos(15) i - sin(15) j)

s1 = 22.2 i km - 5.95 j km

displacement 2 , s2 = 31 j km

the third displacement required , s = sB - s1 - s2

s = 10 km i - ( 22.2 i km - 5.95 j km) - 31 j km

s = - 12.2 i km - 25.05 j km

a)

the magnitude of displacement , |s| = sqrt(12.2^2 + 25.05^2)

|s| = 27.9 km

b)

the direction of displacement , theta = arctan((- 25.05)/(-12.2)) = - 115.96 degree from +x axis
