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)?

Paths	RC	CA	AB	BP
Directions (in degrees)	120	0	90	240

Your answerChoose one option.

L = 2.5; D = 5.0

L = 0.0; D = 5.0

L = 5.0; D = 2.5

L = 0.0; D = 0.0
