Answer with explanation:

The given vectors in are reduced to their componednt form as shown

For vector A it can be written as

\overrightarrow{v}_{a}=16cos(44^{o})\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}

Similarly vector B can be written as

\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=-13\widehat{i}

Hence The sum and difference is calculated as

\overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=16cos(44^{o})\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}+(-13\widehat{i})\\\\\overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=(16cos(44^{o})-13)\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore \overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=-1.49\widehat{i}+11.11\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore |\overrightarrow{v}_{a}+\overrightarrow{v}_{b}|=\sqrt{(-1.49)^{2}+11.11^{2}}=11.21m

The direction is given by

\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{r_{y}}{r_{x}}\\\\\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{11.11}{-1.49}=97.64^{o}with positive x axis.

Similarly

\overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=16cos(44^{o})\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}-(-13\widehat{i})\\\\\overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=(16cos(44^{o})+13)\widehat{i}+16sin(44^{o})\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore \overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}=24.51\widehat{i}+11.11\widehat{j}\\\\\therefore |\overrightarrow{v}_{a}-\overrightarrow{v}_{b}|=\sqrt{(24.51)^{2}+11.11^{2}}=26.91m

The direction is given by

\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{r_{y}}{r_{x}}\\\\\theta =tan^{-1}\frac{11.11}{24.51}=24.38^{o}with positive x axis.
