Good day. I recently asked this question and I was wondering how to get the “b=0.866a” the one in red box. Thank u so much, having a hard time understanding it, also kinda urgent ty!The truss above is designed in such a way that all compression and tension members have an area of 400 mm^2 and 150 mm^2 respectively.
