During her recent trip to the grocery store, Claire de Iles walked 28 m to the end of an aisle. She then made a right hand turn and walked 12 m down the end aisle. Finally, she made another right hand turn and walked 12 m in the opposite direction as her original direction. Determine the magnitude of Claire's resultant displacement. (The actual direction - east, west, north, south are not the focus.)
