A 1,100–N uniform boom at ϕ = 65.5° to the horizontal is supported by a cable at an angle θ = 24.5° to the horizontal as shown in the figure below. The boom is pivoted at the bottom, and an object of weight w = 2,150 N hangs from its top.

(a) Find the tension in the support cable.

(b) Find the horizontal & vertical components of the reaction force exerted by the pivot on the boom. (Assume the positive x-direction is to the right and the positive y-direction is upward. Include the sign of the value in your answer.)

**Both answers must be in kN.
