Question

Help with 4 and 5 please!!

Answer 1

Question 4
The magnitude;
Using Pythagoras theorem,
 (-200)² + (-530)² = 320900
                 Length = √320900
                              =  566.5 mi
To get the angle
Tan θ = opposite/adjacent
          = 200/530
          =  0.3774
       θ = tan^-1 (0.3774)
          =  20.67
          ≈ 21°
The direction from the Cartesian plane is south of west.
Therefore, the magnitude and the direction will be;
 About 566.5 mi, 21° south of west

Question 5.
To get the resultant of two vectors we just add the two vectors given.
This involves adding the corresponding values.
Thus, for <-6,5> and <6,-5>
Resultant vector = <(-6+6),(5+-5>
                           = <0,0>
