A ladder against a wall problem

[QUOTE="kuruman, post: 6073593, member: 192687"] Exactly how did you do that? You must have calculated the torques about the point where the ladder makes contact with the ground. For parts (b) & (c) you need to balance forces in the horizontal and vertical directions, 2 equations 2 unknowns. For part (c) they are talking about the resultant force that the ground exerts on the ladder. Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessarily along the ladder, which is what you show in your diagram. [/QUOTE]
