Read the scenario below and solve. Show your work.

Mikayla and Paula each begin their hikes at the visitor center. Mikayla hikes 7 miles east, then turns 40° north of east and hikes 5.5 more miles. Paula hikes 7 miles west, then turns 35° south of west and hikes 5.5 more miles. When they reach their destinations, who is closer to the visitor center? Justify your reasoning.

\(- \frac { 7\pi } { 4} \)is equivalent to what value when converted to degree measure?
