Answer #1

Since resultant force is vertical so horizontal forces will be cancel out......

Here we denote fy and fx as vertical and horizontal components of the forces

Answer #2

As the resultant force is directed vertically upwards, components of forces along horizontal direction cancel each other

Thus

solving we get
