Did you draw a free-body diagram(FBD) of the situation?

Hint: Define x-y direction as the net-rope and the post.

Write your equilibrium equations.

You'll have two equations and two unknowns - solve.

If you are still stuck - write back showing "FBD" and your work - indicating exactly where you are stuck.
