How to interpret distance bearing?

We are given;

Distance between the lecture hall and gym = 910 feet.

Distance between the gym and Lin apostrophe's house = 615 feet.

Distance between the lecture hall and Lin apostrophe's house = 651 feet.

Now, since this 3 distances form a triangle and the 3 distances are unequal, then we can call it an obtuse triangle since he walked west and then walked northwest.

Now, since he walked back to his house from the gym, we can say that he walked southwest if we picture the bearing of his first two directions.
