The figure shows the path taken by a drunk skunk over level ground, from initial point i to final point f. The angles are 8-26.0% 8₂-49.0% and 8-76.0°, and the distances are d₁-5.90 m, d₂-7.40 m. and da = 12.0 m. What are the (al magnitude and (b) angle of the skunk's displacement from i to f? Give the angle as a positive (counterclockwise) or negative (clockwise) angle of magnitude less than 180° measured from the +x direction.
