Reaction Ra = 8.75t.
Fab = Ra/sin60.
Fac = Fab*cos60.
Fab = Ra/sin60.
Fac = Fab*cos60.

First of all, calculate the reactions at the supports. You will get Ra=70t/8 and Re=50t/8. By using the method of joints take sigma Fy=0 at support A.
You will get the value of Force in AB member=-70t/4*sqrt3.
After it, take Sigma Fx=0 at support A, and you will get the value of force in AC member 8.75t/sqrt 3.
You will get the value of Force in AB member=-70t/4*sqrt3.
After it, take Sigma Fx=0 at support A, and you will get the value of force in AC member 8.75t/sqrt 3.

Option D is the correct answer.
Use Lamis theorem.
Fac=8.75*(sin120)/(sin60) = -8.75/(√3).
Use Lamis theorem.
Fac=8.75*(sin120)/(sin60) = -8.75/(√3).
