Statics Problem, force and moment

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on solving a statics problem involving the force exerted on member abcd by the pin at point b. Participants emphasize using the equilibrium equations, specifically the sum of moments (ƩM=0) and the sum of forces (ƩF=0), to analyze the system. The original poster seeks confirmation on their approach and whether they are proceeding correctly with their calculations. Concerns are raised about the clarity of the visual aids due to light colors used in the presentation. Overall, the focus remains on ensuring the correct application of statics principles to solve the problem.

1.find the force exerted on member abcd by the pin at b
2.ƩM=0 ƩF=0
3. sorry for the light colors, its from my office onenote. this is what I've got so far, i wanted to make sure I am on the right track or not
