The resultant vector is 5.2 cm at a direction of 12⁰ west of north.

Resultant of the two vectors

The resultant of the two vectors is calculated as follows;

R = a² + b² - 2ab cos(θ)

where;

  • θ is the angle between the two vectors =  45° + (90 - 57) = 78⁰
  • a is the first vector
  • b is the second vector

R² = (3.7)² + (4.5)² - (2 x 3.7 x 4.5) cos(78)

R² = 27.02

R = 5.2 cm

Direction of the vector

θ = 90 - 78⁰

θ = 12⁰

Thus, the resultant vector is 5.2 cm at a direction of 12⁰ west of north.
