For the beam shown, calculate the beam deflection at A. Assume that a = 5.2 ft, b-7.8 ft.c=10.4 ft, w=1100 lb/ft, P= 1000 lb, and El
= 507000 kip-in.². Use the sign convention from the textbook throughout (rotation angles are positive counter-clockwise and
deflections are positive upwards) unless otherwise stated.

Consider section AB of the beam. Treat this section as a cantilever beam subjected to a distributed load. Calculate the deflection
at point A. Also calculate the magnitude of the moment at B.
