The cantilever truss shown carries a vertical load of 885 lb. The truss is supported by bearings at A and B which exert the forces ??, ?ℎ and ?ℎ. The four constitute two couples which must have opposite moment effects to prevent movement of the truss. Determine the magnitude of the supporting forces.
