The diagram below shows two vectors, A and B, and their angles relative to the coordinate axes as indicated. DATA: a=46.1??=59.2??A?=2.1cm. The vector A?B is parallel to the ?x axis (points due West). Calculate the y? Since the sum vector (A-B) has no y? component, vector A must have the same y-component as vector B. As shown, 'east' is for +x, and 'north' for +y, thus the answer can be negative.
