Resultant of a system of forces
Two forces of size 25N and XN act on a particle P, with the 25N force horizontal and the angle between the forces 145 degrees. The angle between the 25N force and the resultant is 100 degrees.
a) find the size of the resultant force
b) find X
I don't know where to start on this question to find the size of the resultant in this situation. Any help appreciated!!!!

A sketch is usually very helpful and think about how you can "ignore" the unknown force X in order to relate the resultant to the known force of 25N
