Introduction
The sum of two or more vectors is called the
resultant force. The resultant force can be calculated
using the method of vector addition. To achieve manipulation of forces in a controlled and measurable
equilibrium, the equilibrant force should be added in way. The Force Table can be used to establish
the resultant force. Equilibrant force points exactly in
the opposite direction of the resultant force.

After getting the values of each forces x and

by the group using the formula
Quadrant IV. If this is so, then you must first subtract
your reference angle from 360. (4)
