Adam sets out for a hike from hos camp at point \(\mathrm{A}\). He hikes at an average speed of \(4.2\) km/h for \(45\) minutes, on a bearing of \(035^{\circ}\) from the camp, until he stops for a break at point \(\mathrm{B}\).

  1. Find the distance from point \(\mathrm{A}\) to point \(\mathrm{B}\).

Adam leaves point \(\mathrm{B}\) on a bearing \(114^{\circ}\) and continues to hike for a distance of \(4.6\) km until he reaches point \(\mathrm{C}\).

    1. Show that \(\mathrm{A\hat{B}C}\) is \(101^{\circ}\).

    2. Find the distance from the camp to point \(\mathrm{C}\).
