A barge is pulled by two tugboats. The barge is aligned horizontally while the rope of tugboat 1 is inclined with the horizontal 0-degrees upward, and rope of tugboat 2 is inclined with the horizontal 'a'-degrees downward. If the resultant of the forces exerted by the tugboats is a 3,790-lb force directed along the axis of the barge and 8=40 degrees, determine the magnitude of the tension (lb) in rope 1 if a = 54° Answer in 2-decimal places only if applicable, and don't include units.
