Question:

A winch puller AB is used to straighten a fence post. Knowing that the tension in cable BC is 260 lb, length a is 8 in., length b is 35 in., and length d is 76 in., determine the moment about D of the force exerted by the cable at C by resolving that force into horizontal and vertical components applied

(a) At point C,

(b) At point E.
