PASSAGE
A student solving a three-force-member equilibrium problem writes the following solution: "Since the member is a three-force member, the three forces must be concurrent. By geometry, the lines of action of forces at A and B intersect at point P. Therefore, the force at C must also pass through P. Using the force triangle (law of sines): FC/sin⁡(40°)=500/sin⁡(75°)F_C / \sin(40°) = 500 / \sin(75°), giving FC=333 NF_C = 333 \text{ N}." The student's answer is numerically correct.
An instructor reviewing this solution for communication quality would most likely identify which of the following as the primary deficiency?
