β= = = or β = 46.1°

Taking moments about B and equating the same,
RA × 6 = (P × 5) + (2 P × 4) + (P × 2) + (2 P × 1) = 17 P

∴ (^17) 2.83.

Let the directions of the various forces be assumed as shown in Fig 13.64. Now resolving the
forces vertically at E and equating the same,
Fig. 13.64.
PED sin 36.6° = P
∴ ED sin 36.6 0.5960 1.68 (Tension)

Similarly, resolving the forces vertically at G and equating the same,
PCG sin 46.1° = P
∴ CG sin 46.1 0.7206 1.39 (Tension)

From the geometry of the figure, we also find that
∠EDB = ∠ACH = 180° – (36.6° + 60°) = 83.4°
