A woman sailing a boat at night is following directions to a dock. The instructions read to first sail 27.5 m in a direction 66.0o north of east from her current location, and then travel 30.0 m in a direction 112o north of east (or 22.0o west of north). If the woman makes a mistake and travels in the opposite direction for the second leg of the trip, where will she end up? Compare this location with the location of the dock.
