A 18.8 kg beam of length L = 39.8 m is attached at an angle of 0 = 36.0° to the side of a building. If the beam is holding up a mass M = 74.4 kg and is
supported by a horizontal wire that is attached at location X = 22.3 m (measured along the beam from the building to the wire attachment point), what is the
force the building is putting on the beam?
