On the diagram, Rx and Ry represent vectors on a Cartesian coordinate system. My Draw a green vector to represent the addition of vectors Rx + Ry. Label the resultant vector R. RX 2. How would you calculate the magnitude of the resultant vector R using Rx and Ry? Write a formula for R using Rx and Ry. 3. Indicate the angle that represents the direction of R by writing OR on your diagram in green. 4. How would you calculate the angle OR using Rx and Ry? Write a formula for OR using Rx and Ry. R 5. On the second diagram, R represents a vector on a polar coordinate system (R,0). Draw the horizontal component of R in blue and label as Rx. Draw the vertical component of R in red and label as Ry. 6. How would you calculate Rx using the magnitude of R and the angle 0? Write a formula for Rx using 0 and R. 7. How would you calculate Ry using the magnitude of R and the angle of 0? Write a formula for Ry using 0 and R. R 8. We will be reporting the resultant angle from 0. Calculate the angle 0 for the diagram shown. Show your work. 270 9. Calculate the angle 0 for the final diagram shown. Show your work. 270 R 10.
