Solve the problem. -A bird flies from its nest 6 km6 \mathrm {~km} in the direction 1111 ^ { \circ } north of east, where it stops to rest on a tree. It then flies 9 km9 \mathrm {~km} in the direction 3838 ^ { \circ } south of west and lands atop a telephone pole. With an xy-coordinate system where the origin is the bird's nest, the xx -axis points east, and the yy -axis points north, at what point is the tree located?
