![25
A telephone cable is clamped at A to the pole AB. Knowing that the
tension in the right-hand portion of the cable is T2 = 1000 lb, determine
by trigonometry (a) the required tension T, in the left-hand portion if
the resultant R of the forces exerted by the cable at A is to be vertical,
(b) the coresponding magnitude of R.
