A clever adventurer on a treasure hunt reads the following instructions from his map: Walk 347 m east of a large acacia tree, then 764 m at a direction 25° north of east, then 465 m in a southwesternly direction. Because he studied physics in college, he uses vector addition using graphical methods to make his search easier. According to his graphs, how far and in what direction should he walk to get directly to the treasure? Please help me in solving this through PARALLELOGRAM METHOD using cosine and sine law
