What can I do? Did I...
HGx = HG(5/sqrt(29))? Then times 5 distance to moment C?
God, I'm so tired, I've been working and trying hard to figure out all day, I'm going to sleep for now
Can anyone please explain where does 5/sqrt29 and 3/sqrt34 come from? I already got BC/know how to find BC, but in my own method, I tried to use moment about A or B, knowing that there is HGx, HGy & HCy, HCx -- there are way too many unknowns @ H.
So, looking at this, I'm wondering where does...
