For the frame ‫هيكل‬and loading shown, determine the

reactions of a pin at A and the reaction E when α=30

𝑨𝒚
𝑨𝒙

α
By taking the moment about A , α=30
• 𝑴𝑨 = 𝟎 = 𝑬 𝒔𝒊𝒏 𝟑𝟎 ∗ 𝟖 + 𝑬 𝒄𝒐𝒔𝟑𝟎 ∗ 𝟓 − 𝟐𝟎 ∗ 𝟏𝟎 − 𝟐𝟎 ∗ 𝟑
• E = 31.212 lb (reactions at E)
• 𝑭𝒙 = 𝟎
• 𝑨𝒙 − 𝟐𝟎 + 𝟑𝟏. 𝟐𝟏𝟐 sin 30=0
• 𝐀 𝐱 = 𝟒. 𝟑𝟗𝟒 𝐥𝐛
𝑨 𝒚
• 𝑭𝒚 = 𝟎 𝑨𝒙
• 𝑨𝒚 -20+ 𝟑𝟏. 𝟐𝟏𝟐 cos 30=0
• 𝑨𝒚 =-7.03 lb
negative signs means that the Reactions α
have the opposite directions to that on FBD.
