A little confused with this question: 

A swan is flying at a speed of 17.5m/s. A wind is blowing from the East at 12.5m/s. 

if the swan POINTED due South, what would be the magnitude and direction of the velocity relative to the ground. 

 if the swan WISHED to travel due south, what would be the velocity relative to the ground

I just want to know what the vector diagrams would look like for part a and b becasue im a little confused with that.
