Answer:
magnitude is 4.5 lb, and the direction is given by the angle 250°.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that the magnitude is 4.5lb (it is already written in the graph, the "distance" between R and T).
To find the angle, remember that the angle is measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis.
We can see that the angle, measured clockwise, is 110°
And the angle of a complete revolution is 360°
The sum of the angle measured clockwise and the angle measured counterclockwise should be equal to 360°
Then the angle, measured counterclockwise is given by:
360° - 110° = 250°
Then the magnitude is 4.5lb, and the direction is given by the angle 250°.
