Two forces with magnitudes of 150 and 100 pounds act on an object at angles of 30° and 120°, respectively. find the direction and magnitude of the resultant force. round to two decimal places in all intermediate steps and in your final answer.

Resultant = 180.27 pounds

direction  is  63.69 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We  have to resolve the x and y component of both forces with respect to given angles

Fx = 150cos30 +100cos120

    = 150(0.866)+100(-0.5) =129.9-50=79.9 pounds

and

Fy= 150sin30+100sin120

   = 150(0.5) +100(0.866)= 75+ 86.6 =161.6 pounds

Magnitude of the resultant is =

                                                 =

                                                  = 180. 27 pounds

Direction of the resultant is given by  arctan(

                                                               arctan(

                                                            =63.69 degrees

dilation scale factor 2: starting with δabc, draw the dilation image of the triangle with a center at the origin and a scale factor of two. notice that every coordinate of the original triangle has been multiplied by the scale factor (x2). dilation with scale factor 2, multiply by 2.
