Solve the all parts of given question:

Question: A truck is traveling due west at 31.2 km/h through a rain storm. The wind blows directly east so that the rain comes down making an angle of 10.0° with respect to the vertical. The rain traces on the side windows of the truck make an angle of 41.0° with the vertical (angled toward the rear of the truck).

Part A: Determine speed of the rain with respect to the Earth?

Part B: Determine speed of the rain with respect to the truck?

Write your solution in appropriate format and provide references.
