Resultant of Concurrent Force System
Resultant of a force system is a force or a couple that will have the same effect to the body, both in translation and rotation, if all the forces are removed and replaced by the resultant.
The equation involving the resultant of force system are the following
1.The x-component of the resultant is equal to the summation of forces in the x-direction.
2.The y-component of the resultant is equal to the summation of forces in the y-direction.
3.The z-component of the resultant is equal to the summation of forces in the z-direction.
Note that according to the type of force system, one or two or three of the equations above will be used in finding the resultant.
Resultant of Coplanar Concurrent Force SystemThe line of action of each forces in coplanar concurrent force system are on the same plane. All of these forces meet at a common point, thus concurrent. In x-y plane, the resultant can be found by the following formulas:

Coplanar Parallel Force System
Parallel forces can be in the same or in opposite directions. The sign of the direction can be chosen arbitrarily, meaning, taking one direction as positive makes the opposite direction negative. The complete definition of the resultant is according to its magnitude, direction, and line of action.
