yeah dude ---- algebra. They said I had to take pre-calc back in the day and I told them to ---- off and took alot of arguing but I didn't have to take it. I said "I'm paying the money, I'm not wasting my time with pre-calc so just let me in calc and if I fail its my fault"

By the way I think the answers are:
284N horizontal
-.0781 vertical

cal 1 is fun kyle, just remember formulas and you will be fine.
what you have to remember in this situation is that they are polar coordinates at first, until you add the +/-2q turning them into cartesian coordinates (the have a magnitude.
Vx^ V
| /Vr
| /
|/_No _>
Vy
so Vx=|V| cosNo
Vy=|V| sinNo
r= square root of (x2+y2)
the easy thing to forget to do in the equasion is the -r
kyle very much surprises me. good on ya mate.
BTW whitey, what is this for in the first place?
