In a two-dimensional tug-of-war, Alex, Betty, and Charles pull horizontally on an automobile tire at the angles shown in the picture. The tire remains stationary in spite of the three pulls. Alex pulls with force F A of magnitude 210 N, and Charles pulls with force c of magnitude 177 N. Note that the direction of F c is not given. What is the magnitude of Betty's force F B if Charles pulls in (a) the direction drawn in the picture or (b) the other poscihlo direction for oguilibriym? This answer has no units

Question
In a two-dimensional tug-of-war, Alex, Betty, and Charles pull horizontally on an automobile tire at the angles shown in the picture.
The tire remains stationary in spite of the three pulls. Alex pulls with force FA of magnitude 21ON, and Charles pulls with force
F c of magnitude 177 N. Note that the direction of F c is not given. What is the magnitude of Betty's force F B if Charles pulls
in (a) the direction drawn in the picture or (b) the other poscible diroction for ecuilibriym?
