Question

A ball of mass m1=3kg moving south at 6m/s collides with a ball of mass m2=2kg initially at rest. The incoming ball is deflected in the direction 60 degrees S of W and the target ball moves off at 25 degrees E of S.
Consider that the Collison happens on a horizontal plane and find the final speeds?

I started with
V1=-V1cos60-V1sin60
V2=V2cos25-V2sin25
