…. and the angle 0 ?
0
0 = tan-1 ( y  x) = tan-1 ( 4  3) = 53.130

Thus, the Point P can be represented as P (x, y) = P (3, 4) in
Rectangular i.e. Cartesian coordinates. OR
as P (r, 0 ) = P ( 5, 53.130) in Polar coordinate system.
To get Rec from Pol …X = 5 cos 53.130 and Y = 5 sin 53.130
This is nothing but Rec  Pol OR Pol  Rec conversion.
There is a Ready function for all this in scientific calculators….

F1 = 40 N
F2 = 80 N
1500
450 IMP Note - All angles are
measured from +ve X axis.
CCW angles are +ve
-400 F4 = 30 N CW angles are –ve
Thus, + 600 = - 3000
