A boat whos speed in still water is 2.5m/s is in a river whose velocity is 1.0m/s south. What is the velocity of the boat relative to the shore when
a) the boat is headed south?
b) the boat is headed north?
c) the boat is headed west?

I don't understand how to do these vector velocity problems.
We have been taught to use diagrams with arrows and such.

...And use like, triangles with trig.

A vector has both magnitude and direction.
