Answer
The x-component is 17.3 m and the y-component is 10.0 m
Work Step by Step
We can find the magnitude of the x-component which is in the negative x-direction:
$\frac{x}{20.0~m} = sin(60.0^{\circ})$
$x = (20.0~m)~sin(60.0^{\circ})$
$x = 17.3~m$
We can find the magnitude of the y-component which is in the positive y-direction:
$\frac{y}{20.0~m} = cos(60.0^{\circ})$
$y = (20.0~m)~cos(60.0^{\circ})$
$y = 10.0~m$
The x-component is 17.3 m and the y-component is 10.0 m.
