Question About Resultant of Parallel Forces

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the resultant of non-concurrent force systems using specific formulas. The key equations presented include Rx = ∑ Fx for the horizontal component, Ry = ∑ Fy for the vertical component, and R = √(Rx)^2 + (Ry)^2 for the overall resultant. Additionally, the tangent of the angle θ is defined as tan θ = Ry / Rx. Participants are encouraged to share their work for verification and to seek clarification on any errors.

i want to know the solution for this problems
some of the problem has a answer already but no solution...

Summary of Formulas for Determining Resultant of non concurrent force systems.

Rx = ∑ Fx horizontal component of the resultant
Ry = ∑ Fy vertical component of the resultant
Rd = ∑ M ( MOMENT )
R = √ (Rx)^2 + (Ry)^2

tan θ = Ry / Rx
