A 3.00-mm-long, 280-N uniform rod at the zoo is held in a horizontal position by two ropes at its ends (see Figure 1). The left rope makes an angle of 150° with the rod, and the right rope makes an angle θ with the horizontal. An 80-N howler monkey (Alouatta seniculus) hangs motionless 0.50 mm from the right end of the rod as he carefully studies you.
