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)
