On a rainy day, raindrops fall with a vertical velocity of 8.5 m/s. If a car drives through the rain at 70.0 km/hr (19.44 m/s), what is the magnitude of the velocity of the raindrops relative to the car?

At what angle are the raindrops falling relative to the car? Assume the direction the car is headed is 0° and down is 90°.
