Lami's theorem

Lami's theorem in statics states that

:"if three coplanar forces are acting on a same point and keep it stationary, then it obeys the relation"

: $frac{A}{sin(gamma)}=frac{B}{sin(eta)}=frac{C}{sin(alpha)}$

:"where A, B and C are the magnitude of forces acting at the point (say P), and the values of"

:α, β "and" γ

:"are the angles directly opposite to the forces C, B and A respectively".

Lami's theorem is applied in static analysis of mechanical and structural systems.
