Expert Solution
Step 1

In the given problem, three different forces are acting on a car, in three different directions.

Let the three forces be denoted as

F1=985 NF2=788 NF3=411 N

The components of these forces will be calculated resolving these forces into the x and y directions.

And the x components explicitly will be found by taking the directions of all these forces with the positive x axis.

Force F1 makes an angle of 31o with the positive x axis.

F2 makes an angle of 32o with the positive y axis. So the angle made with the positive x axis will be (90+32=122o)

F3 makes an angle of 53o with the negative x axis. So the angle made with the positive x axis will be (53+180=233o)
