Since when the person runs at 8 km/h the rain seems to be coming verticaly down thus the horizontal component of rain, Vx is 8 km/h
When he incrreases his relative speed by 4 km/h with the horizontal component of rain, it seems to fall at an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical.
It means the vertical component, Vy is: 4/Vy = tan 30
i.e.
Vy = 6.93 km/h
V = 10.58 km/h
and angle of falling is: tan-1(8/6.93)
