Question 1135470: The problem below refers to a vector V with magnitude |V| that forms an angle θ with the positive x-axis. In this case, give the magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical vector components of V, namely Vx and Vy, respectively. (Round each answer to the nearest whole number.)
|V| = 373, θ = 13° 40'
|Vx| =
|Vy| =

abs%28V%29=+373, theta+=+13° 40' =theta+=+13%2B40%2F60=13%2B2%2F3=41%2F3
find:
abs%28V%5Bx%5D%29 =
abs%28V%5By%5D%29 =
abs%28V%5Bx%5D%29=V%2Acos%28theta%29+
abs%28V%5Bx%5D%29=373%2Acos%2841%2F3%29+
abs%28V%5Bx%5D%29=373%2A0.97168674242
abs%28V%5Bx%5D%29362.4
abs%28V%5By%5D%29=V%2Asin%28theta%29
abs%28V%5By%5D%29=373%2Asin%2841%2F3%29
abs%28V%5By%5D%29=373%2A0.236272881650641
abs%28V%5By%5D%29%26asymp%3B++%7B%7B%7B88.13
