30sinthetha = 18

sinthetha = 18/30

              = 3/5

 

thetha = 37''

horizontal component = 30costhetha = 30cos37

                                                    = 30 x 4/5

                                                    = 24 N

 

plz approve!

the answer can be obtained by the application of pythagoras theorem as well.

FH2 + FV2  = F2.

here F= 18N, F = 30N.

so F= 24N.
