Graphical and Component method

Component Method
1.) Gather the given data. Make a simple drawing that doesn't have to be scale, but is with respects to the supposedly layout of the directions.
2.) Use the SOH CAH TOA method to be able to determine the x and y vectors for each distance plotted. Record all of these values. Remember that the x-axis to the left is negative, and the y-axis to the lower portion is negative.
3.) After getting all of these values, add them all up to arrive at a total of the x values and the y values. Using SOH CAH TOA method, determine first the angle of the final distance, then get the hypotenuse of the total x and y values (one of these is surely the opposite and adjacent based on the final angle you arrived at). The angle you arrived at, and the hypotenuse you determined is the final distance and direction.


Graphical Method
1.) Using the given, make a scale that would be rational to the quantities.
2.) Use the scale to fit and draw the given direction and distances on the sheet.
3.) Be sure to note the correct distances and angles to the respective direction.
4.) After plotting all given, measure the line and angle from the starting point to the end point. Be sure to use scale and correct direction in determining the total distance and the final direction and angle.
