A hydraulically powered lift supports the two boxes shown. All members are pin connected and their weights are negligible. Assume that the weights of the boxes and centers of gravity are known. From the whole system free-body diagram, assuming none of the external support reactions have been solved for previously, determine the single equation of equilibrium that would be a direct solution for the force in member DE.

A hydraulically powered lift supports the two boxes shown. All members are pin connected and their weights are negligible. Assume that the weights of the boxes and centers of gravity are known. From the free-body diagram of member ABC, assuming that the pin reactions at C are known, determine the single equation of equilibrium that would be a direct solution for the force in the hydraulic cylinder BE.
