5km east
a hiker walks 15 mi due east, then heads due north for 8 km. what is the direction of the resultant vector?
You can calculate the magnitude of the displacement by using Pythagoras's Theorem. a2+b2=c2 Let a be 8, b be 6 and c be the magnitude. 8km2+6km2 = c2 64k+36km = c2 100km = c2 10km = c
The Sun rises due East at the equinoxes, March 21 and September 22. It rises slightly north of there on March 22, the day after the equinox. That answer applies all over the world.
30 meters south
It would appear to fly east based on the Coriolis effect.
65km-45km = 20 km to the east. Just replace "east" by "forward" and "west" by "backward" and the answer is immediately visible. The words 'east' and 'west' are just typical math textbook style to veil that it is a simple subtraction that has to be done.
Kansas is due east of Colorado and due north of Oklahoma. Topeka is the capital city in Kansas.

It isn't due north, but it is north east.
