**Uniform Rod and Tension Problem**

A 3.00 m long, 190 N uniform rod at the zoo is held in a horizontal position by two ropes at its ends. The left rope makes an angle of 150° with the rod, and the right rope makes an angle θ with the horizontal. A 90.0 N monkey hangs motionless 0.500 m from the right end of the rod.

In this problem, we will calculate the tension in the two ropes, and the angle θ.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram shows a horizontal orange rod suspended by two ropes attached to trees on either side. The left rope forms an angle of 150° with the rod. The right rope forms an angle θ with the horizontal. A monkey is hanging 0.500 m from the right end of the rod. The distances along the rod are marked: 2.50 m from the left end of the rod to the monkey and 0.50 m from the monkey to the right end of the rod.
