Finding magnitude and direction of vector


Assignment:

Question 1. You are driving into St. Louis, Missouri, and in the distance you see the famous Gateway-to-the-West arch. This monument rises to a height of 192 m.  You estimate your line of sight with the top of  the arch to be 2.0° above the horizontal.  Approximately how far (in kilometers) are you from the base of the arch?

Question 2. A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200 newtons. A second force F2 is added to F1.The resultant of the two vectors has a magnitude of 400 newtons and points along the east/west line. Find the magnitude and direction of F2.
