    Equilibrium of Vertical Load P on Rod BC

    are you sure that sin(90+theta) = cos(theta)? It's very close, but I don't think that's a correct statement. edit...nevermind. I'm assuming you meant pi/2 instead of 90. THANKS! I cannot tell you how much of a help you've been.

    Equilibrium of Vertical Load P on Rod BC

    So I am assuming you want me to solve these equations for \theta, right? Well, this is what I have: \frac{s}{sin( \theta)} = \frac{l}{sin( \angle BAC)} s = \frac {l sin (\theta)}{sin( \angle BAC)} then plug s into: \frac{P}{sin( \angle ABC)} = \frac{ks}{sin( \angle CBP)} to get...
