    Is the Origin for a Sawhorse at C or -D/2?

    Summary: So we are just going to ignore the distance between C and the left support point (-D/2)? If the origin is at C, doesn't this mean M is -D/2 from the origin? In the evaluation, they clearly acknowledged that there is a distance between C and xp which is (-D/2)...
