# Vector \( V_1 \) is \( 6.0 \) units long and points along the negative \( y \) axis. Vector \( V_2 \) is \( 4.5 \) units long and points at \( +45^{\circ} \) to the positive \( x \) axis.

Vector \( V_1 \) is \( 6.0 \) units long and points along the negative \( y \) axis. Vector \( V_2 \) is \( 4.5 \) units long and points at \( +45^\circ \) to the positive \( x \) axis.

**Part a)** What are the \( x \) and \( y \) components of each vector? *(3 points)*

**Part b)** Determine the sum of the two vectors in terms of length and angle. *(3 points)*
