Find his total displacement for the day

Reference no: EM13524178

In the morning, a camper walks dues north for 16 kilometers and then stops for lunch. After lunch, he walks 10 kilometers due east and then fishes until dark. He then tries to get home by walking 20 kilometers in a direction of 37 degrees south of west. Find his total displacement (magnitude and direction) for the day.
