This can be solved a couple of ways. One way is to use the Pythagorean theorem to write equations for the magnitude from the components of the forces. That is what was done in the graph here.

Another way is to use the Law of Cosines, which lets you make direct use of the angle between the vectors.
.. 13 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab*cos(90°)
.. 19 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab*cos(120°)
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we have
.. 6 = -2ab*cos(120°)
.. ab = 6

Substituting this into the first equation, we have
.. 13 = a^2 +(6/a)^2
.. a^4 -13a^2 +36 = 0
.. (a^2 -9)(a^2 -4) = 0
.. a = ±3 or ±2

The magnitudes of the two forces are 2N and 3N, in no particular order.

Darya [45]

Answer:

49145 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In a certain country the life expectancy for women in 1990 was 45 and in 2000 it was 85?years.

Assuming that life expectancy between 2000 and 2100 increases by the same percentage as it did between 1900 and 2000,what will life expectancy be for women in 2100?

In 10 years, the expectancy increased by 85/45 = 17/9

between 2000 and 2100, it will increas by 10 time 10 years, so expected expectancy is  85*(\frac{85}{45})^{10} = 49145  years
