Determine the tension in cable to design anchor hardware


A 100-pound sign is supported at the midpoint of a cable stretched between anchor points that are separated by 86 feet. The anchor points are at an equal distance about the ground. When the sign is in place, the cable height at the sign is 8 feet below the anchor points. In order to design the anchor hardware, it is necessary to determine the tension in the cable. What is that tension in pounds?
