OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

F_2 = 186.3 / 98.8 / 47.7 / 72.2 beta = 303.6 / 123.6 / 236.4 / 56.4

OpenStudy (phi):

what does 120 N R= 180 N mean ?

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

Resultant = 180

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

The direction of the resultant is the same as the force 120

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

@phi

OpenStudy (phi):

What two vectors are we adding to produce the resultant ?

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

It's the result of adding all the forces

OpenStudy (phi):

so we are adding 4 vectors? in terms of mag, angle <170, 50> <F2, -beta> <200, 180> <120, ??> do we have to find the angle for that last vector ?

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

The triangle is drawn

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

In mechanics they mostly draw the triangle on the line like this:|dw:1444162046880:dw|

OpenStudy (phi):

ok, so we need the angle. what is it ?
