Solution:
We need to find the magnitude of the resultant on both x- and y-axis.
x-axis) The resultant on the x-axis is
in the positive direction.
y-axis) The resultant on the y-axis is
in the positive direction.
Both Fx and Fy are positive, so the resultant is in the first quadrant. We can find the angle and so the direction using
from which we find
