    The aircraft is traveling north at 100 m/s.

    The wind blows from the west (towards the east) at 25 m/s.

    The two vectors form a right triangle. The magnitude of the resultant velocity can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

    v² = vx² + vy²

    v² = (25 m/s) ² + (100 m/s) ²

    v = 103 m/s

    The direction can be found with trigonometry:

    θ = atan (vy / vx)

    θ = atan (100 / 25)

    θ = 76.0°

    The resultant velocity is 103 m/s at 76.0° north of east.
