The x component of a vector that is defined as 852 cos 302°. Both the direction and the magnitude are required to define.
Vectors seem to be a physical quantity with both magnitude and direction. While the scaler is the only quantity which is defined by the magnitude.
For example, distance is the scaler and the displacement is the vector quantity. Vector is shown by an arrow on the quantity.
A vector's scalar x-component is equal to the product of its magnitude and the cosine of its direction angle.
Hence, the x component of a vector that is defined as 852 cos 302°.
