Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

The turning angle is not affected by how long the robot moved.

We need to consider only the turning degrees from facing North to facing South, which is 180 degrees.

x = 180 - 44 - 55 = 81

Answer:

x = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

You're only concerned with angles in this problem. The initial bearing is 0° (measured clockwise from north). After the first turn, it is 44°. After the second turn, it is 44° +55° = 99°. After the third turn, it is 180° (south), so the last turn is found from ...

99° + x° = 180°

x = 180 -99 . . . . . divide by ° and subtract 99

x = 81
