    To resolve these forces we have to make use of the sines and cosines.

    To resolve this force in 30 degree north of west, the answer will be

    100*sin (30)

    The answer will be 50N

    Now to resolve the force acting 60 degree north of east

    100 * cos (60)

    The answer will be 50N.

    This also adds to the total force acting that is 50+50=100N. This is the way forces are resolved according to their specified angles.
