Any help appreciated. :) A football player runs directly down the field for 35m before turning to the right at an angle of 25 degrees from his original direction and running an additional 15m before getting tackled. What is the magnitude and direction of the runner's total displacement?

We are given with an original length on the ground ( zero degrees) of 35 meters.After which, 15 meters was ran at an angle of 25 degrees from the original track. To solve the magnitude and direction, we use the calculator by setting first to complex setting. We input 35 < 0 + 15< 25. The result is 49 < 7.44. The total displacement is 49 meters with an angle of 7.44 degrees.
