  1. To solve, divide the trapazoid into a rectangle and a triangle or two triangles, then replace each with an equivalent concentrated load.  The equivalent concentrated load acts at the centroid of each shape, and its magnitude is the \"area\" of the shape.  
  2. \n
  3. Treat the beam as a uniformly distributed load, and place the weight of the beam at the center.

  5. Once replaced, draw a free body diagram; then take moments at A to find B and vice-versa.  Check your work by applying $\\Sigma F_y = 0$.
