Can you answer this ?

I am trying to work through this question below,

Find the aircraft groundspeed and track given that the
aircraft’s true airspeed was 75 knots, its heading 130º and the wind velocity 225º/25. Can you solve this using Cosine or Sine rule ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nick



Correct answer is 76.96 knots and the track 111.1.
