Find the magnitude and direction of the equilibrant force for these two concurrent forces: 13.5 N, E and 32.0 N, N. Pls HELP me answer this. Thank u very much.

X = 13.5 N.
Y = 32 N.

tan A = Y/X = 32/13.5 = 2.37037
A = 67.1o

Fr = 32/sin 67.1 = 34.7 N[67.1o] = Resultant force.

Equilibrant=34.7N[67.1+180]=34.7N[247.1]
