a helicopter is flying at 150mph on a course with a bearing of 130°. If the helicopter experiences a crosswind blowing southeast at 25 mph, find the resultant speed and direction of the helicopter.​

150-25=125mph

130-25=105

This means it was going 125mph and that it dropped an altitude of 25 degrees because of the wind and the slow down of the helicopter
