#	Label	Magnitude	Angle (°)	Quick direction

Angles measured from the positive X-axis (→ horizontal right), counter-clockwise positive. 0° = right | 90° = up | 180° = left | 270° (or −90°) = down.

4Component Working

Force	F	θ	F_x = F · cos θ	F_y = F · sin θ

Note — This calculator resolves concurrent coplanar forces acting at a single point into their resultant using vector addition. All forces are assumed to act in the same 2D plane. Angles are measured counter-clockwise from the positive X-axis. Verify equilibrium conditions independently for any structural application.
