[SOLVED] Vector Addition
Find the angle between two vector forces of equal magnitude, such that the resultant is one-third as much as either of the original forces.
Pythagorean Theorom, I assume
This is from Schaum's 3000 Problems in physics, page 7, # 1.35... I don't understand their explanantion thus I don't understand where to begin. Can someone give me a lead?
The answer is 160.8 degrees by the way...
