Solve this problem

Hi, Todd, hope this question qualifies, as I have no clue how to solve it
[​IMG]
I've provided you a drawing to the right to assist you in coming up with the answers. You need the following information to solve for the Northerly (R1) and Westerly (R2) ....

Point Load (P) = 167.4571
Length (L) between (R1) and (R2) is 1000
Length (b) between (P) and (R2) is 319.442

And that's all you should need to know to solve for (R1) and (R2).

    I think i have the solution to your problem...

    algebric sum of vertical forces=0
    i.e. R1+R2=167.4571----(1)

    The moment about any point in the beam is =0
    lets take the moment about the point where R2 acts
    R1x1000-167.4571x319.442=0
    =>R1=53.4928
    And substitute this in eq.(1)

    R1=53.4928
    R2=113.9643

    Ok, something is not quite right because the solution needs to be close to these coords: (within 3 km)N 53° 29.000 W 113° 58.000

    But why is the solution in degrees.😕
    if you apply degree to my solution you are getting the answer..
    i.e.When you convert to degree 53.4928=>53degree29minutes
    if you know the reason please let me know....:smile:

    this is determinate beam ,solv it by using equilibrium condition

    let us apply newton equilibrium eq we have
    1)net force in y dir=0
    therefore
    r1+r2=p---(1)
    net moment about r1 =0
    i.e
    r2*1000=p*(1000-319.442)---(2)
    solve simultaneously get ans
    how ever to find difflection
    generate an poerator =0;{f(x)=0 or (-)eve}
    then bending moment eq is: r1*-p*----(3)
    now since
    d^sy/dx^2=eq(3)/(e*i);were e is young modulus and i is moment of inertia
    integrate twise will give you defliction having to constat of integration
    to find there value
    put y=0 at point r1 and r2
    were y is difliction
