b) The three hinged tied arch AEB shown in Figure 3 is supported with a pin at \( A \), a roller at B and a cable CB. The arch supports one end of a 10 m beam at point D subjected to a uniformly distributed load and an inclined concentrated load at F . The arch follows a parabolic shape with equation \( y=-\frac{10 x^{2}}{20^{2}}\).
i) Use the equation of the parabola to determine the \( y \) distance from the top
of the arch to points A, D, F and B.
ii) Determine the external applied load that acts on the arch at point D.
iii) Evaluate the components of the reactions at \(\mathrm{A},\mathrm{B}\) and the tension in the
cable CB.
iv) Assess the components of the internal forces at the hinge E
