Answer: I1 = 3A sin t
 
I2  5A cos t = 4 A sin  t  
 2

I3  I12  I22  (3A)2  (4A)2  5 A

 
I3  I1  I2  3 A sin t  4 A sin  t  
 2

3 4 
 5 A  sin t  cos t 
 5 5 

Then, tan  
3
   53o

So, 
I3  5 A sin  t     5 A sin t  53o 
Amplitude of I3 = 5A.
