Explanation / Answer

For vector A

The x component is 9(cos 65) = -3.80 N (Negative due to direction)

For vector B

The x component is (5.2)(cos 54.1) = -3.05 N (Negative due to direction)

The net x = -6.85 N


For vector A

The y component is (9)(sin 65) = 8.16 N

For vecotr B

The y component is (5.2)(sin 54.1) = -4.21 N (Negative due to direction)

The net y = 3.95 N


The magnitude of the resultant is found using the pythagorean theroem

resultant^2 = (6.85)^2 + (3.95)^2

resultant = 7.91 N
