Expert Solution
Step 1

Draw a diagram for the problem showing the tension forces acting in cables AB and AC and using the given value of θ which is 45o

Mechanical Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Here, TAB and TAC are the tensions in the cables AB and AC respectively. Using the two angles 30o and 45o in the triangle ABC the third angle i.e. the angle between cables AB and AC is equal to 105o as denoted in the diagram.
