### Problem Statement

Determine the magnitudes of the reactions at \( A, B, \) and \( D \) for the pair of beams connected by the ideal pin at \( C \) and subjected to the concentrated and distributed loads.

- **Diagram**: 
  - A beam system with points \( A, B, C, \) and \( D \).
  - A 30 kN downward force at point \( A \).
  - A triangular distributed load of 3.4 kN/m from points \( B \) to \( D \).
  - Distances are marked as follows:
    - \( A \) to \( B \): 3.5 m
    - \( B \) to \( C \): 2.5 m
    - \( C \) to hinge: 5.0 m
    - Hinge to \( D \): 1.5 m

### Part 1

We need to separate the two beams and draw a Free-Body diagram for each body. Each of the triangular distributed loads has been replaced by an equivalent single force \( R \) at the appropriate distance (\( d_1 \) or \( d_2 \)). Calculate \( R, d_1, \) and \( d_2 \).

- **Free-Body Diagrams**:
  - **Left Beam**:
    - \( A_x \) and \( A_y \) are the reaction forces at \( A \).
    - 30 kN downward force.
    - \( R \) is equivalent force from the triangle.
    - \( C_y \) is the reaction at \( C \).
    - \( d_1 \) is the distance of \( R \).

  - **Right Beam**:
    - \( C_y \) and \( D_y \) are reaction forces.
    - \( R \) is the equivalent force from the triangle.
    - \( d_2 \) is the distance of \( R \).

- **Answers**:
  - \( R = \) [input box] kN
  - \( d_1 = \) [input box] m
