1. Find the components of the vector.
Since the angle given is the same as the trig angle, we can use 17o in our equations.
32cos(17) = 30.60 m x
32sin(17) = 9.356 m y
2. Find the components of the vector.
Converting the 23o angle to a trig angle is done by subtracting it by 360, since the angle is just below the 0 or 360o line. Using our new angle, 337o, we can solve for the components.
15cos(337) = 13.81 m x
15sin(337) = -5.861 m y
