Knowing that the tension in cable AE of Prob. 2.123 is 75 lb, determine (a) the magnitude

Question:

Knowing that the tension in cable AE of Prob. 2.123 is 75 lb, determine (a) the magnitude of the load P, (b) the tension in cables BAC and AD.
PROBLEM 2.123
Cable BAC passes through a frictionless ring A and is attached to fixed supports at B and C, while cables AD and AE are both tied to the ring and are attached, respectively, to supports at D and E. Knowing that a 200-lb vertical load P is applied to ring A, determine the tension in each of the three cables.
