From Figure:
(i) ab is drawn at an angle of 135° and 250 units in length
(ii) ac is drawn at an angle of −120° and 400 units in length
(iii) bd and cd are drawn to complete the parallelogram
(iv) ad is drawn. By measurement, ad is 413 units long at an angle of −156°. That is, the resultant force is 413 N at an angle of −156
