why is it 123.7?

isnt it in third quadrant so 180+(90-56.3)=213.7

 

Take moment about point A.
EMA =0
MA =-F, x6+ F, x(5+4)
Substitute F cos a for F, and Fsina for F,.
M, =-F cosax6+F sin a x(5+4) .
(1)
......
Differentiate the above equation with respect to angle.
dM, d-F cosax6+Fsina×(5+4)
da
da
= 6F sin a +9F cos a
For the maximum moment,
6Fsin α + 9F cos α = 0
9
tan a =
a =-56.3
Calculate the angle from positive x direction.
a = 180– 56.3
= 123.7°
Therefore, the allowable angle for the required force is 123.7°

The ball of a trailer hitch is subjected to a force F. If failure occurs when the moment of Fabout
point A reaches 10.000 in.-lb. determine the largest value F may have and specify the value of a
for which the moment about .A is the largest. Note that the value of Fyou determine must not
produce a moment about, A that exceeds 10.000 in.-Ib for any possible value of a.
