I'll assume a frame of reference where the 12 lb force is at 0 degrees and the 19 lb force is at 92 degrees.

\n" ); document.write( " $\"F%5By%5D=12sin%280%29%2B19sin%2892%29=19%280.9994%29=18.99\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F=sqrt%28F%5Bx%5D%5E2%2BF%5By%5D%5E2%29=22.1\"$
\n" ); document.write( "or to the nearest pound, $\"F=22\"$ $\"lbs\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
