    The west axis component of walk is, A = 5 miles

    The east axis component of walk is, B = 8 miles

    Explanation:

    Given data,

    The displacement of hiker south of west, R = 9.4 miles

    The angle formed south of west, Ф = 60°

    The vector components along,

    the west axis is

    A = R cosФ

    A = 9.4 x cos 60

    A = 4.7 miles

    A = 5 miles

    The west axis component of walk is, A = 5 miles

    the south axis is

    B = R sinФ

    B = 9.4 sin 60

    B = 8.14 miles

    B = 8 miles

    The east axis component of walk is, B = 8 miles
