Answer:

17.13 ,1.31°

Explanation:

Magnitude of vector A = 15

Magnitude of vector B = 7.3

Angle between A and B is θ = 86°

Let the magnitude of the resultant is R.

use the formula for the resultant of two vectors

[tex]R=\sqrt{A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos\theta[/tex]

[tex]R=\sqrt{15^{2}+7.3^{2}+2\times15\times7.3Cos86 }[/tex]

R = 17.13

Let the angle between A and R is α.

[tex]tan\alpha =\frac{BCos\theta }{A+BSin\theta }[/tex]

[tex]tan\alpha =\frac{7.3Cos86 }{15+7.3Sin86 }[/tex]

tan α = 0.02286

α = 1.31°
