Answer:

3.4km

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attached.

The angle between the line joining the starting point with position and the line due East is 58⁰ ( 90⁰ - 32⁰).

Let x be how far she walked in a southernly direction.

Using Trigonometric ratio ( SOH CAH TOA),

[tex]sin \: 58 = \frac{x}{4} [/tex]

x = 4sin 58⁰

x = 3.3922km

x = 3.4km to one decimal place.

Therefore, the distance hse walked southernly direction is 3.4km.
