The magnitude and direction of two forces acting on an object are 90 pounds, S52°E, and 80 pounds, N72°E, respectively. Find the magnitude, to the nearest hundredth of a pound, and the direction angle, to the nearest tenth of a degree, of the resultant force. The magnitude is approximately pounds. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
