Let C 375 m 15 above the negative xaxis and D 286 m 30 to
Let C = (3.75 m, 15 above the negative x-axis) and D = (28.6 m, 30 to the right of the negative y-axis).
a.) Find the x-component and the y-component of C .
Enter your answers numerically separated by a comma.
b.) Find the x-component and the y-component D .
Enter your answers numerically separated by a comma.
Solution
(a) C=<x,y>
= <3.75cos15, 3.75sin15> = <-3.62, 0.97>
(b) D = <x,y>
= <28.6cos60, 28.6sin60> = <14.3, -24.8>
