Explanation Given: Figure ( 1 ) Approach: For the system to be in equilibrium, the sum of the vertical components of the tensions will be equal to the weight and the sum of horizontal forces will be zero. For a vector T with an angle of θ , the horizontal component of the vector is given as | T | cos θ and the vertical component is given as | T | sin θ . The tension T will be given as, T = | T | cos θ i + | T | sin θ j Figure ( 2 ) Calculation: For horizontal equilibrium, | T 1 | cos 130 ° + | T 2 | cos 30 ° = 0 − 0.642 | T 1 | + 0.866 | T 2 | = 0 0.866 | T 2 | = 0.642 | T 1 | | T 2 | = 0.741 | T 1 | ... ( 1 ) For vertical equilibrium, | T 1 | sin 130 ° + | T 2 | sin 30 ° = 100 0.766 | T 1 | + 0.5 | T 2 | = 100 Substitute the value of | T 2 | from equation ( 1 ) in the above expression, 0.766 | T 1 | + 0.5 ( 0.741 | T 1 | ) = 100 1.1365 | T 1 | = 100 | T 1 | = 87
