A window washer weighing 700 N is standing on a scaffold supported by a vertical rope at each end. The scaffol?

i already found the force in rope 2 but im not getting the force in rope 1.

difficult situation. search in google or bing. that could actually help!

The tension in the two vertical ropes must sum to 700N in order to balance the window washer. EDIT. In order to find the answer for each rope, I need to know how long the scaffold is and where the window washer is standing. EDIT. Taking moments about the end nearest to window washer. T1*3.044 = 298.6*1.522 + 700*1.51 ----> T1 = 496.54 N (2. d. p.) Taking moments about the other end. T2*3.044 = 298.6*1.522 + 700*1.534 ----> T2 = 502.06 N (2. d. p.) T1 + T2 = 496.54 + 502.06 = 998.6 = 700 + 298.6 as required.
