a) 6.1 N
Given a force of magnitude F, the horizontal (x) component of the force can be found using the equation:

where
F is the magnitude of the force
is the angle between the direction of the force and the horizontal
In this problem, we have
F = 6.6 N

Therefore, the horizontal component is

b) 2.4 N
The vertical (y) component of the force can be found using the equation:

where
F is the magnitude of the force
is the angle between the direction of the force and the horizontal
Here we have
F = 6.6 N

So, the vertical component is
