Fom 12:00 to 12:30 distance coveref is 100 miles
From 12:30 to 1:30 distance covered is 200 miles.
Total distance covered = 300 mile so outside of range of cambridge
Remaining distance to covere = 80 mile but we only have fuel for another 50 miles since fuel for 300 miles is used up so emergency langding.
It has traveled 100 miles in the y direction till 12:30.
After that it travels 200sin45 in the y direction and 200cos45 in the x direction.
So total is 100+200sin45 in y direction and 200cos45 in x direction.
Square both and then add. Then take square root to get distance from Cambridge.
