Convince me this is not school homework...
I am little old for school. This was in a statics book. I was solving one by one. this one I am unable to.

Thank you for the reply. Will look in to it.
Of course the 2D solution is easily derived from Kelly's answer resulting in a much simpler problem. Kudos to Kelly for the general solution though.
