Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
A ladder of weight 'w' rests against a smooth vertical wall, and rests on rough horizontal ground, the coefficient of friction between the ladder and the ground being 1/4. The maximum angle of inclination of the ladder to the vertical, if a man of weight 'w' is to walk to the top of it safely, is tan'1 x, where x is

According to Law of Triangle of Forces

If three forces acting on a, point can be represented in magnitude and direction, by the sides of a triangle taken in order, these will be in equilibrium
Three forces acting along the sides of a triangle are always in equilibrium
If the forces acting on a particle be represented in magnitude and direction by the two sides of a triangle taken in order, their resultant will be represented in magnitude and direction by the third
Three forces acting at a point, can be rep-resented by the sides of a triangle, each side being in proportion to the force
