Rx = F1x + F2x = 86.60 + 75 = 161.60 N Ry = F1y + F2y = 50 + 129.90 = 179.90 N
Calculate the x- and y-components of each force. Rx = F1x + F2x = 86
Find the resultant force components.
R = √(Rx^2 + Ry^2) = √(161.60^2 + 179.90^2) = 243.30 N θ = tan^(-1)(Ry/Rx) = tan^(-1)(179.90/161.60) = 48.19° Rx = F1x + F2x = 86
