A vector A\mathbf{A} has magnitude 10 units10\,\text{units} and makes an angle α\alpha with the positive xx-axis. When added to the vector B=6i^−8j^\mathbf{B}=6\hat{i}-8\hat{j}, the resultant is directed entirely along the positive xx-axis. a. (a) Calculate the angle α\alpha. b. (b) Find the magnitude of the resultant vector.
