Solve the all parts of given question:

Question: A car travels due east with a speed of 50.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth. The traces of the rain on the side windows of the car make an angle of 60.0° with respect to the vertical.

Part A: Find the velocity of the rain with respect to the car?

Part B: Find the velocity of the rain with respect to the Earth?

Please break down every step and do not skip over anything - I have been at this problem awhile and keep getting hung up. Thanks for the help!
