Which are the possible courses for the sailboat?

A sailboat set a course of N 25° E from a small port along a shoreline that runs north and south. Sometime later the boat overturned and the crew sent out a distress call. They estimated that they were 14 miles away from the nearest harbor, which is 32 miles north of the port they had set sail from. If a rescue team leaves from the harbor, find all possible courses the team must follow in order to reach the overturned sailboat. (Select all that apply.)

S 40° E

S 50° E

S 10° E

N 80° E

S 80° E
