Magnitude of x = 700 cos (90 + 60) = -sin60 * 700 = -606.
Magnitude of y = 700 cos60 =350.
Magnitude of y = 700 cos60 =350.

Fx: 700cos30 (-ve value).
=> - 606lb.
Fy: 700cos60 (+ve value).
=> 350lb.
You need to sketch and figure the angle involved.

How come? I have no idea how am I getting my answer but I don't think it's an appropriate approach. Can someone solve this?
