 //The above equations only work when the vectors are decomposed with along the x and y axis as defined in the figure to the right.// Oftentimes, an angle that is given or derived cannot make use of the simple decomposition formulae above. The geometric properties of the problem will dictate which trigonometric functions are used. //The above equations only work when the vectors are decomposed with along the x and y axis as defined in the figure to the right.// Oftentimes, an angle that is given or derived cannot make use of the simple decomposition formulae above.
