Required: 

\n\n

Procedure:

\n
    \n
  1. Start by drawing a clear diagram representing the situation and locate point \"$x$\" where the lines of action of $\\mathbf{F}$ and $\\mathbf{C}$ intersect.  In three-force-bodies, the line of action of $\\mathbf{A}$ must pass through that point too.  
  2. \n
  3. Draw the line of action of $\\mathbf{A}$ and define $\\alpha$.\n

    \n
  4. \n
  5. Find $h$, using:  \\[\\tan\\theta = \\frac{h}{\\overline{BC}}\\]
  6. \n
  7. Find $\\alpha$:  \\[\\tan\\alpha =\\frac{h}{(\\overline{AB} + \\overline{BC})}\\]
  8. \n
  9. Rearrange the forces into a force triangle, tip-to-tail, and label it.\n

    \n
  10. \n
  11. \n

    Use the law of sines to solve for the unknown magnitudes. \\[ \\frac{F}{\\sin (90 + \\alpha)} =    \\frac{A}{\\sin (90° - \\theta)} = \\frac{C}{\\sin (\\theta-\\alpha)}\\]

Three force body approach:

\n

Three unknowns: Magnitudes of $\\mathbf{B}$ and $\\mathbf{C}$, direction of $\\mathbf{A}$.

\n

The lines of action of $\\mathbf{B}$ and $\\mathbf{C}$ are known so you can use geometry to find their intersection point.  Force $\\mathbf{A}$ passes through this point too, so you can determine from this the direction of $\\mathbf{A}$.

\n

With the three directions known as well as the magnitude of $\\mathbf{A}$, draw a force triangle and use the law of sines to solve for $B$ and $C$.

Modify the unit portion of the student's answer by

\n

1. replacing \"ohms\" with \"ohm\"  case insensitive

\n

2. replacing '-' with ' ' 

\n

3. replacing '°' with ' deg' 

\n

to allow answers like 10 ft-lb and 30°

This fixes the student answer for two common errors.  

\n

If student_units are wrong  - replace with correct units

\n

If student_scalar has the wrong sign - replace with right sign

\n

If student makes both errors, only one gets fixed.
