Question: 1. If the vector has a angle closer to 90 degrees, does that vector help out the y axis more? Why? Hint: draw a triangle

1. If the vector has a angle closer to 90 degrees, does that vector help out the y axis more? Why?

Hint: draw a triangle with a large angle and another with a small angle and compare.

2. What angles help out the x axis more? Why? (you can also make a table of values)

3. How do I know what quadrant my final resultant vector is in? How do I draw the angle after I put the vector in the correct quadrant? (from the x or y axis...)

4. When calculating the x and the y components on the triangle of a vector, how do I know when to manually put a negative sign on it?
