Question 1205871: Considering AC and BC to be carrying 16kn and 12kn respectively, what is the magnitude and the direction of the resultant? What is the magnitude and the direction of a single vector, that can zero out the resultant?

To determine the numerical (quantitative) values, the vectors AC and BC should be given,
which is NOT a case in this post.

Without given vectors AC and BC, only the general procedure can be described.

It is the parallelogram rule of adding vectors: vectors AC and BC of the magnitude
16 kN and 12 kN respectively and with respective directories should be added.


The meaning of this post/assignment is not clear without giving vectors AC and BC.

My opinion is that the visitor simply forgot to attach this info due to lack of
attention or understanding (or BOTH).
