Answer:

Displacement from the starting position is 103.21m

Explanation:

If you draw these directions, it will create the two legs of a triangle.

Using this method, you can visualize why your displacement is what it is.

Using the pythagorean theorem

[tex] {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2} [/tex]

Plug in both values

[tex] {100m}^{2} + {25m}^{2} = {c}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]c = \sqrt{10652} [/tex]

c = 103.2085

c= 103.21
