Question

Ex 1.4 The body on the 30 deg incline below is acted upon by a force P inclined at 20 deg with the horizontal. If P is resolved into components parallel and perpendicular to the incline and the value of the parallel component is 400 Ib, compute the value of the perpendicular component and that of P.
