***Can someone double check my answer, I got 385.00N @ 21.524 degrees

Bob and Doug are moving into their new apartment. They have just inherited a refrigerator and are trying to slide it into an alcove in the kitchen. A top-down view of the situation is depicted in the figure above. In order to move the fridge into the alcove. Bob and Doug need to push such that their combined force vectors add up to exactly 500.00 N in the y direction (see the dotted arrow F combined). Currently, Bob is applying a force of 200.00 N (F Bob) at an angle of 45.000 degree from the y-axis ( theta Bob). What is the magnitude (F Doug) and angle (theta Doug) that Doug has to push with in order for the fridge to move into the alcove correctly?
