  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

image
The moment of a force about a point is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance from the point to the line of action of the force.
Moment about the line of action of passes through .
Let the force make an angle with side (which is ).
Moment about .
Side is perpendicular to (since ). The perpendicular distance from to the line of action of passing through is .
Moment about .
Squaring and adding:

.
