A pilot flies her route in two straight-line segments. The displacement vector A(vector) for the first segment

Question:

A pilot flies her route in two straight-line segments. The displacement vector A(vector) for the first segment has a magnitude of 244 km and a direction 30.08 north of east. The displacement vector B(vector) for the second segment has a magnitude of 175 km and a direction due west. The resultant displacement vector is R(vector) = A(vector) + B(vector) and makes an angle u with the direction due east. Using the component method, find the magnitude of R(vector) and the directional angle θ?
