Sketch a vector representing a 10 Newton force which acts vertically downward.
Position an x-y coordinate plane so that the initial point of your vector is at the origin, and the angle of the vector as measured counterclockwise from the positive
x axis is 250 degrees. This will require that you 'rotate' the x-y coordinate plane from its traditional horizontal-vertical orientation.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
x axis now elevated 20 degrees counterclockwise from horizontal, negative y axis 20 degrees counterclockwise from vertical

What are the x and y components of the equilibrant of the force?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
x comp = - (10 cos 250) = 3 N
y comp = - (10 sin 250) = 9 N

This looks very good. Let me know if you have any questions.
