friction force up slope on sled
= 0.20 * m* g * cos 25
So
T = m g sin 25 - 0.20 m g cos 25
= m g (sin 25 - 0.20 cos 25)
A sled of mass 30 kg is at rest on a hill that is inclined at 25° to the horizontal; the coefficient of friction between the hill and the sled is 0.20 and the sled is held at rest by a rope attached to a post to keep it from sliding down the hill (the rope is parallel to the hillside). Calculate the magnitude of the tension in the rope.

By the way your diagrams do not show up here. Copy and paste does not work on this site (for obvious reasons).
thank you!!!
