Use the new x and y components to create a new right angled triangle in which the hypotenuse is the Resultant vector.

5. Add the following vectors and find the resultant vector—both magnitude and direction. Vector 1: 23 Newtons @ 17 degrees and Vector 2: 57 Newtons @ 9 degrees.

Step1: Sketch each of the vectors and label with speed and direction.

Step 2: Find the 0-components of each vector and add them together.

Step 3: Find the y-component of each vector and add them together.

Step 4: Use the new x and y components to create a new right angled triangle in which the hypotenuse is the Resultant vector.

Step 5: Use the pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant vector.

Step 6: Use SOH-CAH-TOA to find the angle of the resultant vector.

Step 7: Write your final answer in one complete statement that inlcudes both magnitude and direction.
