The described situation is shown in the attached file.... please see them!!
Here,
vc = Velocity of the cyclist
vr = Velocity of falling rain
In order to protect herself from the rain, the woman must hold her umbrella in the direction of the relative velocity (v) of the rain with respect to the woman.
v = v r + (-v c )
=30+(-10)
=20 m/s
tanθ = v c/ v r = 10/30
=> Θ = tan^-1(1/3)= tan^-1 (0.333) = 18 degree
Hence, the woman must hold the umbrella toward the south, at an angle of nearly 18° with the vertical.
I hope, this will help you
