# Solution
The following solution is presented in a digital format, preserving all the information from the handwritten pages.

## Given Data and Diagram
A structure is shown with points A, C, and D:
- Vertical and horizontal distances are marked:
- From A to C: horizontal 1 m, vertical 3 m
- From C to D: horizontal 3 m, vertical .5 m
- From D vertically down: 2 m
- Loads: 4 kN at A, 6 kN at D
---
## At Point A: Moment Equilibrium
At point A,
\[
\sum M_A =
\]
### The Free Body Diagram at \(\sum M_A = \):
- Forces at D: \(T_{CD}\)
- Decompose \(T_{CD}\) using geometry:
- \(T_{CD} \left(\frac{4}{\sqrt{17}}\right)4 + T_{CD} \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{17}}\right)2 - 6(4) - 4(1) = \)
Using diagram values:
\[
3.8806T_{CD} + .4851T_{CD} - 28 =
\]
### Solve for \(T_{CD}\):
\[
T_{CD} = \frac{28}{3.8806 + .4851} = 6.414\, \text{kN}
\]
So,
\[
T_{CD} = 6.414\, \text{kN}
\]
---
## At Joint C: Force Equilibrium
Next, analyzing joint C:
\[
\sum F_x = \quad \text{(right direction)}
\]
Let’s resolve forces at joint C:
- \(T_{CD}\) acts along CD
- Unknown: \(T_{BC}\)
---
## Solving for \(T_{BC}\):
- \(T_{BC} = 1.571\)
- \(\theta = 8.14^\circ\)
---
## For Joint AB:
\[
T_{AB}\sin\phi = 1.571\sin(8.14^\circ) + 4
\]
\[
T_{AB}\sin\phi = 3.7776 \quad \text{(Equation 4)}
\]
\[
T_{AB}\cos\phi = 1.5552 \quad \text{(Equation 3)}
\]
\[
T_{AB}\sin\phi = 3.7776 \quad \text{(Equation 5)}
\]
Solving equations 3 and 5:
\[
\phi = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3.7776}{1.5552}\right) = 67.62^\circ
\]
\[
T_{AB} = \frac{3.7776}{\sin\phi} = \frac{3.7776}{\sin(67.62^\circ)} = 4.085\, \text{kN}
\]
---
## Maximum Tensile Force
The maximum tensile force is:
\[
T_{CD} = 6.414\, \text{kN}
\]
(Compare above three cables.)
---
## Geometry Calculation
From geometry:
\[
\tan\phi = \frac{y_B}{1}
\]
\[
y_B = 1 \cdot \tan(67.62^\circ)
\]
\[
y_B = 2.429\, \text{m}
\]
---
## Summary Diagram
- In the triangle formed by A, B, and D:
- \(y_B = 2.429\, \text{m}\)
- \(\phi = 67.62^\circ\)
