For the Force Table method

For the F1: For the F2:

x1=mcos θ =( 150 g ) cos 30° =129.90 x2=mcos θ =(−250 g ) cos 15 °=-241.48

y1=msin θ=( 150 g ) sin30 ° =75 y2=msin θ =(−250 g ) sin 15° =-64.71

For the total of x and y of F1 and F2

x=x1+x2=129.90+-241.48=-111.58

y=y1+y2=-75+-64.71=-139.71

For the resultant:

R=√ x 2+ y 2 =√ −111.582 +−139.712=178.8g

For the angle
