This document provides a step-by-step solution to calculating the resultant force of three separate forces acting on a body, where the first force is 50° west of north, the second is 30° north of east, and the third is southeast. It breaks down resolving the forces into their x and y components before calculating the overall resultant force.

2. Three forces of 30 N, 45 N, and 50 N act on a body. The first is in
the direction 50° west of north, the second in the direction 30°
north of east, and the third is southeast. Find the resultant force.
