So the vector sum of Fa and Fb has to lie in the x axis, which means the y components have to add up to zero. or, the y components have to be equal.

Fay = 50k sin 20 = 17.1k
Fby = Fb sin 45 = 17.1
Fb = 17.1 / sin 45 = 24.2 kN. Direction is –45º as is stated

b) Fa = 50k, Fr = 80k
not enough info to solve.
