Determine the normal strain in each bar


The two bars shown in the figure are used to support a load P. When unloaded, joint B has coordinates (0, 0). After load P is applied, joint B moves to the coordinate position (0.40 in., -0.60 in.). Assume a = 7 ft, b = 4 ft, and h = 5 ft. Determine the normal strain in each bar.
