Multiple Concept Example 9 provides background pertinent to this problem. The magnitudes of the four displacement vectors shown in the drawing are A = 16.0 m, B = 12.0 m, C = 11.0 m, and D = 24.0 m. Determine the (a) magnitude and (b) direction for the resultant that occurs when these vectors are added together. Specify the direction as a positive (counterclockwise) angle from the +x axis.
