Find the horizontal and vertical components of the vector with the given length and directions, and write the vector in terms of the vector i and j.
|v|= 4
θ= 100°
-----
horizontal component:: 4cos(100) = -0.6946
vertical component:: 4sin(100) = 3.9392
---------------------------------------------
Form: -0.6946i + 3.9392j
-------------------------------
