I feel like videos and channels like this don't get the credit they deserve, so here's a like and a subscription!

Thanks Christopher! I appreciate it 🙌

Just want to say thanks a ton! I first discovered your videos 2 years ago, and there a very helpful refresher for the FE exam!

That's amazing! Thanks for letting me know and I'm glad that your still around 🙂🤙

at 2:45 you said you have a video on how to calculate the angle with W, x', and y' using geometry. Can you provide the link plz, thanks. Also when adding 2T, why would't we use 2Tcos30 since its technically on a incline.

[@lukasmossner2195]

when you are calculating the t in x' direction, why are you using cos20 instead of sin20 ?

[@Engineer4Free]

Draw a right angle triangle such that T, x', y' are the sides, and the 20 degree angle is included, and then apply SOH CAH TOA. Like this: i.imgur.com/qJIpUb1.jpg 👍
