Step 1
Since the frame is in equilibrium, the sum of the vertical forces at support A must be zero. The vertical forces at support A are the reaction force Ay and the downward force due to the distributed load on member AB. The distributed load on member AB is 1.5 Show more…

Find the supporting forces at A.
Adi S.
Two structural members $A$ and $B$ are bolted to a bracket as shown. Knowing that both members are in compression and that the force is $15 \mathrm{kN}$ in member $A$ and $10 \mathrm{kN}$ in member $B$, determine by trigonometry the magnitude and direction of the resultant of the forces applied to the bracket by members $A$ and $B$.
