Answer

$(a)\space 370\space N$ $(b)\space 230\space N$

Work Step by Step

The x component of the vector $F=F_{x}$ The y component of the vector $F=F_{y}$ (b)$F_{y}=Fsin\theta=\gt F=\frac{F_{y}}{sin\theta}=\frac{290\space N}{sin52^{\circ}}=370\space N$ (c) $F_{x}=Fcos\theta=(370\space N)cos52^{\circ}=230\space N$
