A 12-m pole supports a horizontal cable CD and is held by a ball and socket at A and two cables BE and BF. Knowing that the tension in cable CD is 14 kN and assuming that CD is parallel to the x axis (∅ = 0), draw the free-body diagram needed to determine the tension in cables BE and BF and the reaction at A.
