Suppose that a person starts at position A and walks to position E and then to position G. Fill in the table below to indicate the east-west and the north-south components of the individual legs of the walk and the components of the resulting displacement. Make the measurements off the grid. Finally, use the Pythagorean theorem and SOH CAH TOA to determine the magnitude and the direction of the resulting displacement.
