Correct
Inprinciple,youcandeterminethecomponentsofanyvectorwiththeseexpressions.IfF liesinoneofthe
otherquadrantsoftheplane, willbeananglelargerthan90degrees(or/2 inradians)andcos() and
sin() willhavetheappropriatesignsandvalues.
UnfortunatelythiswayofrepresentingF ,thoughmathematicallycorrect,leadstoequationsthatmustbe
simplifiedusingtrigidentitiessuchas
sin(180
+ ) = sin()
and
cos(90
+ ) = sin()
+ ) + cos(270
) = 0
andyourequationswillnotsimplifysothatyoucanprogressfurthertowardasolution.Therefore,itisbestto
expressallcomponentsintermsofeithersin() orcos() ,with between0and90degrees(or0and/2
inradians),anddeterminethesignsofthetrigfunctionsbyknowinginwhichquadrantthevectorlies.

WhenyouresolveavectorF intocomponents,thecomponentsmusthavetheform|F | cos() or|F | sin() .

Inrealproblemstheoptimalcoordinatesystemisoftenrotatedsothatthexaxisisnothorizontal.Furthermore,
