    nevermind, i found my huge mistake.

    Finding the direction of the resultant

    the magnitude is off a bit because i think of my rounding off. but please look at my picture and where do i go from there to find the angle of the resultant counterclockwise from the +x axisoops in my picture i put R^1/2, instead it should be ^2

    Finding the direction of the resultant

    Could you tell me what you did. I closed this problem and a new practice problem appeared but the same concept. I still cannot get the correct direction. I thought it was suppose to be tan^-1(opposite length/adjacent length) to find the angle but it keeps on telling me my answer is off... i used...

    Finding the direction of the resultant

    A force Farrowbold1 of magnitude 5.30 units acts on an object at the origin in a direction θ = 51.0° above the positive x-axis. (See the figure below.) A second force Farrowbold2 of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the object in the direction of the positive y-axis. Find graphically the magnitude...
