Q2. A drone is used to spray pesticide in a farm. It covers (d1=30 m) towards south. Then it flies (d2=40 m) in a direction 350 east of south, then by changing its direction it covers a distance of (d3=50m) in the direction 650 east of north and finally it covers a displacement (d4=65m) in a direction of 300 south of west. Calculate total displacement (d) covered by the drone and its direction.
