Rectangular Components of a Force in Space



 
Now that you have mastered how to break a 2D force into components you will now learn to to do it in 3D. 3D is much more difficult than 2D but in this section you will be introduced to two methods. The method you use depends on the data you are given. If you are given angles then you will use a trigonometric method, somewhat similar to the approach you learned in 2D. If you are giving coordinates then you will use a formula that takes these coordinates to find the components.
