Tension that the right section of the wire sustains


During a storm, a tree limb breaks off and comes to rest across a barbed wire fence at a point that is not in the middle between two fence posts. The limb exerts a downward force of 273 N on the wire. The left section of the wire makes an angle of 14.2° relative to the horizontal and sustains a tension of 476 N. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (as an angle relative to horizontal) of the tension that the right section of the wire sustains.
