The fishing pole in the figure makes an angle of 20.0o with the horizontal. What is the torque exerted by the fish about an axis
perpendicular to the page and passing through the angler’s hand if the fish pulls on the fishing line with a force of 100 N at an
angle 37.0o below the horizontal? The force is applied at a point of 2.00 m from the angler’s hands.
