I am in High School and I have a question about math. It is a mathematical question TRIGONOMETRY AND BEARINGS
Henry flies his hand-glider on the bearing 256.8 for 5.8 Km. Use the diagram (for example a cross showing North, South, East and West) to find the distance to the nearest metre that it has travelled.
a. south b. west

Did you have the required diagram?

You should also know that:

Adjacent/Hypotenuse = cos x
Opposite/Hypotenuse = sin x

Where x is the angle between the sides mentioned.
