I need help answering the following, please show me how you got the answer as well, thank you!

Each of the current carrying wires in the figure are long and straight and carry a current of I1= 2 , I2= 4 A, I3= 8 A either into or out of the page as shown.  The wires are separated by a distance of 0.35 m.

A- identify the directions of the magnetic fields B1 and B2 due to the currents I1 and I2 at the location of wire 3?

B- what is the directive relative to the X axis and the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the location of wire 3 due to the currents I1 and I2?

C- what is the magnitude of the magnetic force experienced by wire 3 assuming that the length of the piece of current carrying wire is 35 cm?

D- what is the direction relative to the X axis of the magnetic force experienced by wire 3?
