A question on mechanics

I am trying to solve this mechanics problem. I am however not sure that with just the information on length of the sides of the framework in the shape of a rhombus, how am I going to compute the moment arms ?( with information only on lengths of sides of a rhombus, as far as I understand, there is no way I can find out the height of the rhombus) . The problem is about a light framework in the vertical plane with loadings in vertical directions at the corners and some loadings along the edges. The problem is to find magnitude of a force

I have attached the URL showing the image of the problem. Its not good but its the one with the shape of the rhombus .

Advise will be highly appreciated.

Mate, are you sure the URL is right?
I doubt anyone's going to be making an account on 500px just to help you with your work.
Take a screenshot of it, save it as a png, then post it here.
