Hii ashutosh

 

First take one side as fixed ...suppose force with 2p is based...

Now choose 3p and 5p ...angle between them is 60 ...so apply the law and find the resultant ...and direction..

This direction is with 3p ..

 

Draw the geometry neatly...then you will realise the direction of net force of 3p and 5p with 2p...and again apply the same resultant formulae...and direction formulae.....

Do it ...and refer to HC vermas...XI text book...you will find the method .
