Lami's theorem:
It states that if three forces acting at a point are in equilibrium, each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two forces. Consider three forces FA, FB, FC acting on a particle or rigid body making angles α, β and γ with each other.
Therefore, \(\frac{{{F_A}}}{{sin\ \alpha }} = \frac{{{F_B}}}{{sin\ \beta }} = \frac{{{F_C}}}{{sin\ \gamma }}\)
Calculation:
Given:
We have angle BAC = 180° - (30° + 60°) = 90°
angle BAC = 90°
By Lami’s Theorem,
\(\frac{{{800}}}{{sin~90°}} = \frac{{{T_{AC}}}}{{sin~150° }}\)
TAC = 400 N
