Two cables are used to secure the overhang boom in position and support the 1675 N load. If the resultant force is directed along the boom from point A towards O, determine the values of x and z for the coordinates of point C and the magnitude of the resultant force. Set Fg = 1645 N (where position of Fg along x axis = -2 m, along y axis = -6 m and along z axis = 3 m) and Fc = 2130 N (where position of Fc along y axis = -6 m).
