Dear aspirant,

First of all you need to read the question properly and work step by step accordingly. You need to form two equations and solve simultaneously. Let the force be F1 and F2. So in first case F1+ F2 = 10 and in second case F1+F2+2 F1F2 cos60= √148. Then substitute F1 = 10-F2 in second equation.
