Let |r| = 17 at an angle of 40° and |s| = 14 at an angle of 160°. Which expression represents |r + s|?
ty :3

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
I got it right on edge2020, 160-40= 120
120/2 = 60 because the angle was gonna be half way between the two angles
The expression that represent | r+s| is Option B
A vector is an object that has both magnitude and direction.
It is given that
|r| = 17 at an angle of 40 degree
|s| = 14 at an angle of 160 degree
| r + s| = ?
The magnitude will be determined by the cosine law
and the angle will be 60 degree , obtained from the figure attached with the answer.
[tex]\rm |r + s| = \sqrt{ 17^2 + 14 ^2 -2 * 14 *17 cos 60[/tex]
Therefore , the expression that represent | r+s| is Option B.
