The pilot of a red ferry boat, with a cruising speed of 12 km/h, wishes to sail north from Georgetown to Medan across the Strait. If the strait has a 3.0 km/h current flowing west, what course should the pilot set to compensate for the current? If the distance from Georgetown to Medan is 100 km, how long will the sailing take???
