Resultant of two perpendicular 50N forces

[Sonny18n]

Homework Statement

A force of 50N at 90 degrees and a force of 50N at 0 degrees act on an object, what is the magnitude and direction of the resultant force?

Homework Equations

For the x and y component, I've used the cos and sin formula for previous problems but I'm not sure how to figure this out. An example would be great.

The Attempt at a Solution

See I'm not sure if I should start it like before with multiplying the degrees with cos/sin and whatnot.

Make a drawing ! sin and cos still apply and are really easy with these angles.

Have you been shown the head to tail method of adding vectors?
