To solve for the equilibrant force in a system of forces, you must first determine the resultant force by adding all the individual forces acting on an object using vector addition. The equilibrant force is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the resultant force. Mathematically, you can find the equilibrant force by multiplying the magnitude of the resultant force by -1 and finding the vector in the opposite direction.

Use pythagorean theorem to get the magnitude of the resultant force… The fourth force that would put this arrangement in equilibrium (the equilibrant) is equal and opposite the resultant. The components work this way too. To get the opposite direction angle, add on 180°.
