2. A group of students find themselves trapped on campus in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. One of the students was separated from the group because she ran through a passage A meters straight east (instead of going west), then B meters in a direction of 55° west of south and then C meters at 10° west of north. How far and in what direction must she run further to go back to the starting point? Let: A be the last non-zero digit of your school ID number, Example: 110-1572-346 (A=6) B be the last 2 digits of your school ID number, Example: 110-1572-346 (B=46) Cbe the first 3 digits of your school ID number, Example: 110-1572-346 (C=110)
