Can you explain how we get the circled terms please?
No need to solve. Just formulate all the equation that can be seen in the diagram. Examples are
Bx= B cos (- theta 1)
By= B sin (- theta 2 )
Could I get a recheck on the answer for a and b? Here they seem to be incorrect—or at least incorrect notation. I tried 0.00049 for a, and it was also incorrect
