As cos component cancel each other, sin components of force add up. We can find the maxima of the equation to find the place of maximum value of force.
2F sinQ = 2 Kq2      sinQ
                   r2 + d2
                                4
 
Put d ( 2F sinQ)  = 0
             dx
We get
d   (2kq2.       ×      X.           
dx  ( x2 + d2     √   x2.  +.  d2                     
               4.          (  4) 
 
= 2kq2               +.     2kq2.                       ×   (-3 ) x
    (x2. +. d2)3/2.        (  x2.   d​2.     )3/2            2
                 4.                                4
 
On solving we get, 
x2 + d2       = 3x2
          4
  Through this equation,
We get,
             X= d  
                   2√2
