The handle of the lawn mower makes an angle of 22 degree with the horizontal. If the boy pushes with a force of 135N, what are the horizontal and vertical components of the force?

Bad problem. Since a lawnmower handle is rigidly attached to the mower, he doesn't have to be pushing along the angle of the handle. However there's no solution unless we assume he does, so:
Fhor = F cos(22deg)
Fvert = F sin(22deg)
