Construct a rectangle with sides F1 and F2, so that the given force of 350 is the hypotenuse.
and label the angle it makes with F2 as 67°
On mine F2 is the shorter side.
Cos 67° = F2/350
F2 = 350cos67 = ....
btw, F1 = 350sin67 = ...
A force of 350 lb. is resolved into forces at right angles to one another, the angle of F2 being 67 from the 350 lb. force. Find F2.
