Thank you SteamKing and voko. I did not realize that the position vector could be any two points, as long as they are along the line of force and the CD line. Also, thank you for pointing out my error with the unit vector, I switched the y and z values since i am use to a different orientation...

1. Determine the magnitude and direction of the moment of the vertical 800 lb force about the straight line through points C and D. (See attachment for diagram) 2. I believe that the equation i need is (Moment vector)=(unit vector)*((position vector)X(Force Vector)) 3. I feel that...
