Dear Baba
To resolve a vector first define the X and Y axis. Let the vector be P. if this makes an angle A with the positive direction of X axis then
X componenet Px = P*cosA
Y componenet Py = P*sinA
to avoid the confusion the first thing is define X and Y axis and then resolve the vectors quantities along those axis. write X and Y components for all the vectors quantities and then solve.
All the best
