The x component would be Ex = 412 x cos 49° = 270 N/C
Assume there is a small positive charge located at point P. By definition the magnitude of the electric field at point P due to charge Q1 is
E = kQ1/d2
where k is the coulomb constant and d is the straight line distance from Q1 to P.
The distance is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by Q1, Q2, and P.
d = √0.065^2 + 0.075^2 = 0.099 m at an angle of θ = arctan 7.5/6.5 = 49°.
|E| = 8.99 x 10^9 Nm^2 C^-2 x 0.45 x 10^-9 C/ 0.099^2 m^2 = 412 n/C
The x component would be Ex = 412 x cos 49° = 270 N/C
