  • What topic name does this equation go into in physics?
    A_(x) = A cos\theta


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}


\huge \boxed{\sf \: A_(x) = A cos\theta}

  • So, I think this equation will go under Types of Physical quantities, Vector Quantities, Magnitude, Direction, etc. under physics & Trigonometry under Mathematics.
  • This formula is used when we need to find the 'x' component of the vector. You need to know basic trigonometry to solve these type of equations & also how to convert between magnitude & angles.
