anonymous · Answer

does that help?

anonymous · Answer

yeah

anonymous · Answer

i believe the magnitude is 7.2 but i dont know the degrees

anonymous · Answer

ok... so i think you are right about the magnitude...
and the degrees? are they the degrees of the angles?

anonymous · Answer

@dukeoflacrosseteame ?

anonymous · Answer

im assuming so, theres no specifications. i think it is between line 6 and line 4 @MelissaHolmes

anonymous · Answer

i just dont know how to figure out those degrees

anonymous · Answer

ok

anonymous · Answer

so... i found this... maybe it will help? http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/4f611c20e4b079c5c630c4c9

anonymous · Answer

7.2 ft in the direction N56ºE
apparently

anonymous · Answer

the only thing i dont get is how to come up with 56

anonymous · Answer

56 is the degree of the angle

anonymous · Answer

was this helpful?

anonymous · Answer

yes it is, im just wondering how the number 56 came up, there are no numbers there

anonymous · Answer

so the lines cross perpendicularly, right?

anonymous · Answer

yes

anonymous · Answer

that means that the 4 whole angles are 90 degrees.

anonymous · Answer

so for that one angle...
|dw:1393255866473:dw|
so... since the whole angle is 90 degrees, and that particular angle is a little more than half, it is 56.
