The ring will be attached at three points so that is why I was wondering which shape would be stronger, a circle or a triangle.

In deciding which shape of ring I should use to secure an anchor to an anchor trolley I came across two choices, a circular ring or a triangular ring. While either will surely work, I began to wonder which would be more difficult to pull apart. Most of the information I found is about forces...

Thanks!

I am trying to figure out how to calculate the resultant force between 4 anchor points. Basically I want to hang two kayaks on two ropes suspended across a room. Below I have some crudely drawn images of the set up: I found how to calculate the vector forces between two points as pictured...
