8. [#138] What's my bearing The horizontal vector A has magnitude A = 2.2 and its direction is 0 = 35° east of north*. (For your own benefit, we strongly recommend that you draw a sketch.) Calculate its components in the north and east directions. You should write your answer in the following format: "north, east". For example, if the components are 1.2 north and 3.5 east, you should write: 1.2, 3.5 * Notice and be careful with the different conventions: in mathematics, we measure angles anticlockwise from the x axis. In navigation, we often give angles in the clockwise direction from North.
