You would have to drive in north direction 0.41km

Explanation:

We can solve this with trigonometry, We know that:

sin(\alpha )=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\where: \\opposite=north\\hypotenuse=distance

North=sin(6.9^o)*3.4km=0.41km

So the distance I will have to drive in north direction is 0.41km
