Forces with magnitudes of 180 newtons and 275 newtons act on a hook (see figure). The angle

Question:

Forces with magnitudes of 180 newtons and 275 newtons act on a hook (see figure). The angle between the two forces is θ degrees.(a) When θ = 30°, find the direction and magnitude of the resultant force.(b) Write the magnitude M and direction α of the resultant force as functions of θ, where 0°≤ θ ≤180°.(c) Use a graphing utility to complete the table.
