Answer:

Length of B is 7.4833

Step-by-step explanation:

The vector sum of A and B vectors in 2D is

C=A+B=(a_1+b_1,a_2+b_2)

And its magnitude is:

C=\sqrt{(a_1+b_1)^2+(a_2+b_2)^2} =9

Where

a_1=Asinx

a_2=Acosx

b_1=Bsin(x+90)

b_2=Bcos(x+90)

Using the properties of the sum of two angles in the sin and cosine:

b_1=Bsin(x+90)=B(sinx*cos90+sin90*cosx)=Bcosx

b_2=Bcos(x+90)=B(cosx*cos90-sinx*sin90)=-Bsinx

Sustituying in the magnitud of the sum

C=\sqrt{(Asinx+Bcosx)^2+(Acosx-Bsinx)^2} =9

C=\sqrt{A^2sin^2x+2ABsinxcosx+B^2cos^2x+A^2cos^2x-2ABsinxcosx+B^2sin^2x} =9

C=\sqrt{A^2(sin^2x+cos^2x)+B^2(cos^2x+sin^2x)}

C=\sqrt{A^2+B^2} =9

Solving for B

A^2+B^2 =9^2

B^2 =9^2-A^2

Sustituying the value of the magnitud of A

B^2=81-5^2=81-25=56

B= 7. 4833
