An aircraft flies from its base 200km on a bearing 162 degrees and then 350 km of a bearing of 260 degrees. And then returns directly to the base. Calculate the length and bearing of the return journey.

I would draw it out, It would be accurate enough to fly by, may not be accurate enough for Math.
You could actually do it with Google earth, in tools, ruler, then bearing and distance could be figured.
