A girl walks 100 m at angle of 30° North of West. What is the ratio of the distance travelled by the girl in North to West direction?

Total distance covered by the girl is equal to total displacement = 100m

Angle,  = 30o

Magnitude of the component of displacement along North is,

Magnitude of the component of displacement along West is,

Therefore, the ratio of the distance travelled by the girl in North to West direction is given by,
