    100cos30° + 80cos120° + 40cos233° + Dx = 0

    Dx = - 22.53 N

    y components:

    100sin30° + 80sin120° + 40sin233° + Dy = 0

    Dy = - 87.34 N

    magnitude of D:

    sqrt[ (-22.53) ² + (-87.34) ²]

    90.2 N

    direction of D:

    arctan[ (-87.34) / (-22.53) ]

    75.5° ref, but since Dx and Dy are both negative, we know this vector is in QIV:

    360 - 75.5° = 284.5°
