(1) Fx = 675+300Cos 40o = 904.81

Fy= 500-300 Sin 40o = 307.16

R = 955.52 N

(2) Fx = 0 F4 cos - F2 cos 30o F1 cos 63o F3 cos 60o = 0

Fy = 0 F4 sin + F2 sin 30o + F1 sin 63o F3 sin 60o = 0
F4 cos -649.5 226.9 500 = 0
F4 cos = 1376.4
F4 sin + 375 + 445.5 866 = 0
F4 sin = 45.5

(4) Fx = F1 cos 30o +1600 cos 10o + F3 cos 45o = 2800 (1)

Fy = F1 sin 30o -1600 sin 10o - F3 sin 45o = 0 (2)

Add equations 1 and 2
F1=1100N
Substitute the value of F1 in equation 1 or 2
F3=385N

(5) Similar to problem 4

F1=1.65 KN
Substitute the value of F1 in equation 1 or 2
F3=0.577KN
