here two forces are acting at different angles and we need to find its resultant
forces are given as
[tex]F_1 = 550 N[/tex] @125 degree
[tex]F_2 = 600 N[/tex] @200 degree
now in order to find its resultant we will find its components
here it is given as
[tex]F_{1x} = 550 cos125 = -315 N[/tex]
[tex]F_{1y} = 550sin125 = 450.5 N[/tex]
[tex]F_{2x} = 600 cos200 = -563.8 N[/tex]
[tex]F_{2y} = 550sin200 = -188.11 N[/tex]
Now net force in x and y direction is given as
[tex]F_x = -315 -563.8 = - 878.8 N[/tex]
[tex]F_y = 450.5 - 188.11 = 262.4 N[/tex]
so net force is given as
[tex]F = -878.8 \hat i + 262.4 \hat j[/tex]
now the magnitude is given as
[tex]F = \sqrt{878.8^2 + 262.4^2}[/tex]
[tex]F = 917.13 N[/tex]
angle of the force is given as
[tex]\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{F_y}{F_x}[/tex]
[tex]\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{262.4}{-878.8}[/tex]
[tex]\theta = 163.4^0[/tex]
so net resultant force is 917.13 N at 163.4 degree
