Component Method: With your calculator, determine the x and y components of F1 and F2. Remember that Fx = Fcos θ and Fy = F sin θ. Find the x and y components of the resultant from the sum of x and y components. Draw a right triangle with x and y components as sides, and the hypotenuse representing the resultant. Calculate the magnitude of the resultant from the square root of (Rx2 + Ry2). Calculate the direction of the resultant by using θ R = tan-1 (Ry/Rx).
