A 4 kN force acts on point A of a system consisting 2 members. This force is to be resolved into
two components, FAB and FAC that act along AB and AC, respectively. If the magnitude of FAC =
3.78 kN, determine
ct a parallelogram with the
the magnitude of FAB
rce as the a.diagonal.
b. the value of m 2 Extend line AC.
