V is a vector 14.3 units in magnitude and points at an angle of 34.8 degrees above the negative x axis. (a) sketch this vector (b) find Vx and Vy (c) use Vx and Vy to obtain (again) the magnitude and directions of Vector V. NOTE: part (c) is a good way to check if you've resolved your vector correctly.
