I don't quite understand what's being asked.
 
The angles show the direction each force is acting,ANTICLOCKWISE relative to the positive x-axis ---->
150 N acts at 120 degrees, starting from ---> go anticlockwise 90 degrees,then add 30 degrees = 120 degrees
50 N acts at 250 degrees,not 290 go 180 degrees anticlockwise then add 70 degrees.

P.S THE UNITS ARE ALL WRONG, they should be N not Nm
