2) the x-component is r•cos(θ) = (for problem a) 75cos(35°) which you can plug in your calculator to get 61.4 m. The y-component is r•sin(θ)
For the other problems, use the same relationship, the x-component of the velocity vector is 15.5cos(10°) and the y-component is 15.5sine(10°). Of course you plug those into your calculator to get a number. To get the answer for 70°, just plug in 70° instead of 10°.
Same as above for the displacement, the x-component is 20cos(25°)
