Respuesta :

Answer:

Correct answer:  y = 6.43 units

Explanation:

Given:  the length of the vector  l = 10 units , angle that closes a vector with a positive direction to the x axis α = 40°

The vector forms a rectangular triangle with coordinate axes

sin α = y / l  ⇒ y = l · sin α = 10 sin 40° = 10 · 0.643 = 6.43 units

y = 6.43 units
