I need help, someone really good in science out there? If so, I will explain what I dont understand more.

k, how do you add 3 vectors and find the magnitude, where all of them are at weird angles

Wait, wait, wait. Forgive me if I'm misunderstanding you, but you're having trouble with vectors...

Horizontal component is F Cos Angle and Vertical component is F Sin Angle.

Add up the horixontal and vertical components. Don't forget to allow for the CAST rule. Tada! A brand new vector.

Not. Hugely. Complex.

what he said basically. I hope you do mean 2d vectors. and make sure you keep all of your angles from the same origin and make sure the answer seems reasonable.

Nuetrino has the right idea. You're going to have to use trig to figure it out.

Remember, if there perpendicular to each other, their dot products should equl 0...or something like that.

Exactly. There is one main thing I'm having trouble with here. It mostly consists of the word 'Vectors' being proceded by the words 'having trouble with'. In my mind these words should never go together, unless accompanied by the word 'not' at some point.

Normally I would be able to help, but math and science (of ANY type) have always been my downfall. :(

Dude, a vecter is just a magnitude of physical property, with direction taken into account.

In order to find the resultant vecter, just draw a triangle with the length of each triangle side proportional to the vecter's magnitude...

gimme an example and i'll talk you through it
