THE PARALLELOGRAM OF FORCES. 159 The horizontal pull is obtained by makings the oblique pull uponeither span a diagonal of another parallelogram with rectangularcomponents. The pull = 5300… … * Fig. 61. In figure 61, first find the vertical height AD when upright,•which = 58-68. Next take a profile view in which (figure 62) AE =85^ AD = 58-68, PP = 30. If the figure is drawn to scale arid the parallelogram ACDBdrawn for the three forces at A, we shall have the proportion:— AB : AC :: 40…
