A quarterback takes the ball from the line of scrimmage, runs backwards for 12.0 yards, and then runs sideways parallel to the line of scrimmage for 12.0 yards. At this point, he throws a 54.0-yard forward pass straight downfield, perpendicular to the line of scrimmage. How far (in yards) is the football from its original location? HINT yd

In the final game of last year's regular season, South was playing New Greer Academy for the Conference Championship. In the last play of the game, star quarterback Avery took a snap from scrimmage and scooted backwards (northwards) 8.0 yards. He then ran sideways (westward) out of the pocket for 12.0 yards before finally throwing a 34.0 yard pass directly downfield (southward) to Kendall for the game-winning touchdown. Determine the magnitude and direction of the ball's displacement.
