You can put this solution on YOUR website! A vector u with a magnitude of 150 lbs is inclined to the right and upward 52° from the horizontal. Resolve the vector into components.
----
Let u = (x,y)
-------------------
x = 150*cos(52) = 92 (when rounded down)
y = 150*sin(52) = 118 (when rounded down)
