Option A: The vessel has sailed 34 miles South

Explanation:

Given that the vessel sails 41 miles S 35° E.

We need to determine the how far south the vessel has sailed.

Let us use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance of the vessel has sailed.

Thus, we have,

cos \ \theta=\frac{adj}{hyp}

Substituting \theta=35^{\circ} , adj=x and hyp=41

Hence, we get,

cos \ 35=\frac{x}{41}

Simplifying, we have,

0.82=\frac{x}{41}

Multiplying both sides by 41, we have,

33.62=x

Rounding off to the nearest integer, we have,

34=x

Thus, the vessel has sailed 34 miles South.

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.
