Question 5.
To get the resultant of two vectors we add the two vectors given.
In this case, <-6,5> and <6,-5>
Therefore, <(-6+6), (5+-5)>
= <0,0>

Question 6
The appropriate trigonometric ratio to use in the question is tan
Tan θ = opposite/ adjacent
θ is 70 degrees ( 90-20)
Opposite is 15 yd
Adjacent is x
Therefore;
Tan 70 = 15/x
x = 15/tan 70
x = 5.45955
≈ 5.5 yd
Thus, the value of x (nearest tenth) is 5.5 yd

5] The resultant vector will be:
<-6,5> and <6,-5>
=<(-6+6),(5-5)>
=<0,0>
the resultant vector is <0,0>


6] The value of x will be found as follows
tan θ=(opposite)/(adjacent)
θ=20°
hence:
tan 20=x/15
x=15tan20
x=5.4595~5.5 yd
