Orthogonality & Least Squares · Medium problem
A triangular frame is in equilibrium only if the sum of its three strut forces is orthogonal to the frame's out-of-plane normal . Two of the strut forces are and . Find the magnitude of the out-of-plane imbalance – the projection of onto – that the third strut must cancel.
