ΣF_x : F_2 cos60°−F_1 cos30°=2−((3(√3))/2)  ΣF_y : F_2 sin60°+F_1 sin30°=2(√3)+(3/2)  F=(√(F_x ^2 +F_y ^2 ))     =(√(4−6(√3)+((27)/4)+12+6(√3)+(9/4)))     =(√(16+9))=5 units  tanθ=(F_y /F_x )=((4(√3)+3)/(4−3(√3)))=(((4(√3)+3)(4+3(√3)))/(16−27))            =((12+25(√3)+108)/(−11))=−((120+25(√3))/(11))  θ=180°−arctan(((120+25(√3))/(11)))  Resultant force is of magnitude 5 units inclined  at angle θ from positive x-axis.
