M1 exercise 4E question

Hey guys I know how to work it out but I don't quite get what the question means. Is 45 degrees the angle of the slope to the horizontal? I'm confused

Yup it is :smile:
By the horizontal it kinda means a flat surface (say the ground) and the surface you're working with is inclined by 45°

I don't think so. The force Y is at an angle of 45 to horizontal. The angle of slope will be as given in question 5.

I don't know the angle of slope because I haven't got question 5.

Q5 is the bottom image attached in the OP - the angle of the plane is 20 degrees.
