A block and tackle

A block-and-tackle pulley hoist is suspended in a warehouse by ropes of lengths 2 m and 3 m. The hoist weighs 410 N. The ropes, fastened at different heights, make angles of 50° and 38° with the horizontal. Find the tension in each rope
and the magnitude of each tension. (Let T2 and T3, represent the tension vectors corresponding to the ropes of length 2 m and 3 m respectively. Round all numerical values to two decimal places.)
