Determine the magnitude and direction of the wind velocity

A sailboat is heading directly north at a speed of 20 knots (1 knot = 0.514 m/s). The wind is blowing towards the east with a speed of 17 knots.

(a) Determine the magnitude and direction of the wind velocity as measured on the boat in knots (b)What is the component of the wind velocity in the direction parallel to the motion of the boat in knots?
