Well, this is embarrassing. My friend who I was working on it with and I both failed to see the direction of the arrow F1... As it is pointing downwards, not upwards, this question makes a lot more sense now... Sorry for your time! :blushing:

I don't, I just know that it is a 3-4-5 triangle. I know that F2 is 30 degrees away from the x-axis though

1. If the problem statement, all variables and given/known data The resultant force acting is directed along the positive x-axis, determine the magnitudes of F2 and the resultant force And that F3x=4 and that F3y=3 (its a right angle 3-4-5 triangle) Homework Equations F1=F1x +F1Y F2=F2x +F2Y...
