Theorem of Resolved Parts

The sum of the resolved parts of two forces acting through a point along any direction is equal to the resolved part of the resultant of the two forces along that direction.

Explanation

If you find the resolved parts in some direction initially and then find their resultant, it will be equal to the resolved part of the resultant of the two forces in the same direction.
