Answer:

  102.73

Step-by-step explanation:

When the forces are at right angles, the resultant magnitude will be found as the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs equal to the given forces. The Pythagorean theorem applies.

  f = √(77² +68²) = √10553 ≈ 102.728

The magnitude of the resultant is about 102.73.
