Find the tension in cables


A traffic light weighing 1.20 x 10^2 N hangs from a vertical cable tied to two other cables that are fastened to a support. The upper cables make angles of θ1 = 35.0° and θ2 = 55.0° with the horizontal. Find the tension in each of the three cables.

Suppose the traffic light is hung so that the tensions T1 and T2 are both equal to 88 N. Find the new angles they make with respect to the x-axis.
