//As Sigma(Fx)=0
theta1=53 //units in degrees
theta2=37 //units in degrees
F1=100 //units in Newtons
F=F1/cos(theta1*%pi/180) //units in Newtons
W=cos(theta2*%pi/180)*F //units in Newtons

//In text book the answers are printed wrong as F=167N and W=133N but the correct answers are W=132N and F=166N
