a) Find an expression for the net torque on the body about the pivot.
I) r2F2 cos θ2 - r1F1 cos θ1
II) r1F2 cos θ1 - r2F1 cos θ2
III) r1F1 sin θ1 - r2F2 sin θ2
IV) r2F1 sin θ2 - r1F2 sin θ1

(b) If r1 = 1.51 m, r2 = 2.03 m, F1 = 3.78 N, F2 = 4.88 N, θ1 = 75.0°, and θ2 = 60.0°, what is the net torque about the pivot?
