Mathematics

The surveyor is 36.076 kilometers far from her camp and her bearing is 16.840° (standard form).

Step-by-step explanation:

The final position of the surveyor is represented by the following vectorial sum:

$\vec r = \vec r_{1} + \vec r_{2} + \vec r_{3}$ (1)

And this formula is expanded by definition of vectors in rectangular and polar form:

$(x,y) = r_{1}\cdot (\cos \theta_{1}, \sin \theta_{1}) + r_{2}\cdot (\cos \theta_{2}, \sin \theta_{2})$ (1b)

Where:

x, y - Resulting coordinates of the final position of the surveyor with respect to origin, in kilometers.

$r_{1}, r_{2}$ - Length of each vector, in kilometers.

$\theta_{1}, \theta_{2}$ - Bearing of each vector in standard position, in sexagesimal degrees.

If we know that $r_{1} = 42\,km$ , $r_{2} = 28\,km$ , $\theta_{1} = 32^{\circ}$ and $\theta_{2} = 154^{\circ}$ , then the resulting coordinates of the final position of the surveyor is:

$(x,y) = (42\,km)\cdot (\cos 32^{\circ}, \sin 32^{\circ}) + (28\,km)\cdot (\cos 154^{\circ}, \sin 154^{\circ})$

$(x,y) = (35.618, 22.257) + (-25.166, 12.274)\,[km]$

$(x,y) = (10.452, 34.531)\,[km]$

According to this, the resulting vector is locating in the first quadrant. The bearing of the vector is determined by the following definition:

$\theta = \tan^{-1} \frac{10.452\,km}{34.531\,km}$

$\theta \approx 16.840^{\circ}$

And the distance from the camp is calculated by the Pythagorean Theorem:

$r = \sqrt{(10.452\,km)^{2}+(34.531\,km)^{2}}$

$r = 36.078\,km$

The surveyor is 36.076 kilometers far from her camp and her bearing is 16.840° (standard form).
