is at an angle to the direction of displacement.
Solution:  
Work done by a force when the force is at an angle [θ][\theta] to the direction of displacement == Force ×\times component of displacement in the direction of force.
=   Force   ×dcosθ= \;\text{ Force }\; \times d \cos \theta
[ dd is the displacement of the body at the angle θ\theta to the direction of force]
