Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to analyze motion in the vertical (or y) dimension is


A_y=Asin\theta which says that the motion in the y-dimension is equal to the magnitude of the A vector times the sin of the angle.

The formula to analyze motion in the horizontal (or x) dimension is


A_x=Acos\theta which says that the motion in the x-dimension is equal t the mignitude of the A vector times the cosine of the angle.

Many times this is used to find the upwards velocity and the horizontal velocity when an overall velocity is given with an angle of inclination.
