Step 1
- Draw a horizontal line to represent the x-axis. - Draw a vertical line to represent the y-axis. - Label the x-axis as "horizontal" and the y-axis as "vertical". - Draw an arrow pointing to the right to represent the 250 lb force. - Draw an arrow pointing upwards Show more…

If the resultant force acting on the hook is F = {-200i + 800j + 150k} lb, determine the magnitude and coordinate direction angles of F. F is rotated 30 degrees from the y-axis in the xy plane and down in the z-direction.
