Set

Given: , , . Each of these three vectors represents a force pulling on an object—such as in a three-way tug-of-war with the force exerted in each direction being measured in pounds.

5.

Find the magnitude of each vector. This is the number of pounds of force being exerted on the object by each tug. (Round to the nearest hundredth.)
