These forces are the quadriceps muscle force (FQ), the patella ligament force (FPL), and the patellofemoral joint reaction force (FPF). The angles a and ẞ are with respect to a line that is perpendicular to FPF. Assuming a = 15°, ẞ = 20°, and FQ = 3725 N, use equations for static equilibrium to calculate (a) FPL, and (b) FPF. (Hint: To solve this problem consider using a coordinate system that is aligned with the principal axes of the patella instead of the usual vertical and horizontal axes).
