Problem

A delivery robot moves over a large warehouse floor as follows: (i) Express each leg of motion as a displacement vector in component form taking east as +x+x and north as +y+y. (ii) Obtain the resultant displacement vector of the robot and compute its magnitude. (iii) State the direction of the resultant displacement as a bearing measured clockwise from north, correct to the nearest degree.
