In order to find the magnitude we will follow the next formula

$M=\sqrt[]{C^2_x+C^2_y}$

Cx= -309

Cy=187

We substitute the values

$M=\sqrt[]{(-309)^2+(187)^2}=361.18m$

Then for the direction we need o use the next formula

$\theta=\tan ^(-1)((Cy)/(Cx))$

We substitute the variables

$\theta=\tan ^(-1)((187)/(-309))=-31.181$

In order to obtain the direction we need to add to the angle 180°

the direction is -31.181+180=148.82°

ANSWER

magnitud =361.18

direction =148.82°
