The magnitude of vector v is 5given, along with the quadrant of the terminal point and the angle it makes with the nearest x-axis. Find the horizontal and vertical components of v, rounded to one decimal place, and write the result in component form.
|v| = 28,  = 60�, QIII
----
magnitude = 28 ; angle = 180+60 = 240
----
x component = 28*cos(240) = -14
y component = 28*sin(240 = -24.25
