A pair of shear leg has length of each leg as 5 m, and the distance between their jeer is + m. The line joining the feet of the legs is 7 m from the foot of the guy rope. If the length of the guy rope is 10 m, find the thrust in each leg and the pull in the guy rope when a load of 100 kN is suspended from the head.
