06 Resultant Non-Concurrent Force System

This document discusses calculating the resultant of non-concurrent, non-parallel force systems using vector addition. It provides equations to calculate the x and y components of the resultant (Rx and Ry), and defines how to calculate the magnitude and angle of the resultant vector. It then provides two example problems, asking the reader to determine the line of action of resultants for given force systems.
