A piling for a high-rise building is pushed by two bulldozers at exactly the same time. One bulldozer exerts a force of 1850 pounds in a westerly direction. The other bulldozer pushes the piling with a force of 3250 pounds in a northerly direction. What is the magnitude of the resultant force upon the piling, to the nearest ten pounds?
