The line of action of the weight of the ladder is at a perpendicular distance of 0.75 m away from the foot of the ladder. Taking moments about the base of the ladder sum of clockwise moments = sum of anticlockwise moments (32 9.81) 0.75 = R 4.0 32 9.81 0.75 R= 59 N 4.0 b The force at the base of the ladder creates zero moment about this point.
