vectors

Can anyone help me with a question please, dont know if i can post it here, anyway here it is: if a plane is flying at 124 knots (true airspeed) on a headding of 130 degrees with wind at 225/35. what is the planes true ground speed and track.

Can anyone help me get the angle between the aircraft and the wind to complete the vector triangle, from the book its saying 85 degrees (130-45) but i keep getting 95 degrees.
