Marks 2

A delivery agent is at a location R. To deliver the order, she is instructed to travel to location P along straight-line paths of RC, CA, AB and BP of 5 km each. The direction of each path is given in the table below as whole circle bearings. Assume that the latitude (L) and departure (D) of R is (0, 0) km. What is the latitude and departure of P (in km, rounded off to one decimal place)?

$$ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Paths } & \text { RC } & \text { CA } & \text { AB } & \text { BP } \\ \hline \begin{array}{c} \text { Directions } \\ \text { (in degrees) } \end{array} & 120 & 0 & 90 & 240 \\ \hline \end{array} $$
