Homework Statement
I have to solve for legs AB, CB, and the tension in DB. The weight of the fish net is 200 kg.
Homework Equations
Sum of moment = 0
Sum of force in x,y,z directions = 0
The Attempt at a Solution
I have no idea what to do. I've tried using AB and CB as two force members but this doesn't give me any information. The only thing that I really know is the weight of the fish net, which basically means that I know the tension in DB has to be equal to this weight. I've solved one part of the problem, but have no idea about how to determine the force along the legs of AB and CB
