<PRE><B>Question 863537</B>
how do i find the x and y components of a vector? for example, 85 N at 135 degrees
-----
Note: It sounds like you mean the following::
magnitude:: 85
direction 135 degrees
----------------------
If so, the x and y coordinates are
x = 85*cos(135) = -60.10
y = 85*sin(135) = 60.10
