An airplane with a ground speed of 550 km/hr travels along a heading of 30 degrees N of W. At that high altitude there is a powerful 210 km/hr wind (known as the jet stream) 40 degrees south of west. Determine the direction that the pilot is aiming the plane. The answer key says that the pilot must point 52.4 degrees NofW.
