BRAINLIEST ANSWER Find the angle of the resultant vector for the vectors shown below nearest whole number and angles measured from the positive xaxis vector A 3 class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The horizontal component of the resultant vector is:

x = 18 cos 70° + 15

x = 21.2

The vertical component of the resultant vector is:

y = 18 sin 70°

y = 16.9

So the angle from the positive x-axis is:

θ = atan (y/x)

θ = atan (16.9 / 21.2)

θ = 39°

Answer is A.
