What u did is wrong mate .. 

i ll help you

you see.. from the figure 

A is making an angle of 35 degrees with the z axis.. so this should tell u the z component

because of this.. A makes 55 degrees with the xy plane.. so you should be able to achieve the magnitude of that shadow

once you get that, now the shadow of A makes an angle of 35 degrees with x axis.. again this gives you the x component

and thus finally you can achieve the y component!
