Question: A beam is supported by a roller at point A and a pin at point B . Three forces are applied on the beam. Values

A beam is supported by a roller at point A and a pin at point B. Three forces are applied on the beam.
Values for the figure are given in the following table. Note the figure may not be to scale.
\table[[Variable,Value],[F1,3 kN],[F2,2 kN],[F3,2 kN],[d1,1.5 m],[d2,2.5 m],[d3,5 m],[1,25 degrees]]
a. Replace the force system with an equivalent force, FR.(enter the magnitude)
b. Determine the direction of the resultant force FR, measured counter-clockwise from the negative x-axis in degrees. Answer must be between 090
c. Replace the force system with an equivalent couple moment acting at point B,MB.
Round your final answers to 3 significant digits/figures.
FR=
=
MB=kN
