Note: You must not use vector components to solve this question. You must use the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines. The air velocity of a jet is 400 km/h [S 30° W]. A 70 km/h wind is blowing from [N20°W]. Determine the ground velocity of the jet. Include a proper fully sketched diagram, with the vectors arranged properly, and show all your steps.
