If a number of forces are acting at a point, theirresultant will be inclined at an angle θ with the horizontal, such that
tan θ = ∑H/∑V
tan θ = ∑V/∑H
tan θ = ∑Vx∑H

This is very obvious that if we add all forces in horizontal than we will come up with a single force. Same for the vertical forces. They both are independent for each other as far as magnitude is concern. At the end a single vertical and a single horizontal force will left.
So the angle can be calculate and at that anfle there will be a single force of those 2 component horizontal and vertical.

Vertical & horizontal force sum?

We know that Resultant are = algebraic sum of vertical forces /algebraic sum of horizontal forces.

Resultant = (Sum of the vertical force)/(Sum of the horizontal force).

tan 0 = p/b which means slope, and if the resultant is inclined at angle 0.
Then obviously tan 0= (sum of vertical force)/(sum of horizontal force).
Then obviously tan 0= (sum of vertical force)/(sum of horizontal force).

But how you can take vertical plane/Horizontal plane please explain?

What is the answer if it is inclined to the vertical at an angle theta?

Polygon law of forces.
The resultant of more than two intersecting forces may be found out by resolving all the forces horizontally and vertically.
