Answer:

8.84 m

Explanation:

Resolving in both x and y components and taking N and E as positive, S and W as negative then

X-component

[tex]7.96cos 45^{\circ}-14.2=-8.571430022m[/tex]

Y-component

[tex]-3.46+7.96sin45^{\circ}=2.168569978[/tex]

Resultant= [tex]\sqrt {x^{2}+y^{2}}=\sqrt {(-8.571430022)^{2}+2.168569978^{2}}=8.841499215m\approx 8.84 m[/tex]
