Airports A and B are 410 km​ apart, on an​ east-west line. Jim flies in a northeast direction from A to airport C. From C he flies 315 km on a bearing of 125° 50' to B. How far is C from​ A?

The bearing means like- going clockwise 125° 50' starting from the north line that's usually 90°. I know once you find the angles you need, it's just a matter of using law of sines or consines but I'm having a hard trouble finding any angles. I added a picture of what I think the drawing should look like.

Ohhh

#

idk why the outsides are dark but do you see where 120degrees lands

#

thats how I did it in my drawing, how from the north line, 125 degrees clockwise is there

#

but to solve it is just about using the power of schizophrenia to halluciate another triangle with a 90degree corner to find the angle of B then use b^2=(a^2+b^2)-(2ac cosB)

#

Now I have more maths to do, byebyeee
