Answer:

11.57 units east, 13.79 units upwards

11.57i + 13.79j

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 18 units at an angle of 50° to the positive x-axis

In component Form, this is how each component is calculated

a = 18cos50° = 11.57 units east

b = 18sin50° = 13.79 units upwards

check if your answer is correct

[tex]\sqrt{11.57^{2} +13.79^{2} } = 18.0[/tex]

In vector component form ai + bj = 11.57i + 13.79j
