A newly planted tree is supported against the wind by a rope tied to a stake in the ground?

The force of the wind, though distributed over the tree, is equivalent to a single force F, as shown in the figure. Find the tension in the rope. Assume that neither the tree's weight nor the force of the ground on the tree's roots produces any significant torque about point O. (Let F = 134 N, D = 1.90 m and d = 1.26 m.) the picture has the F at the top of the tree D is the height to the top of the tree and d is the height at which the rope is tied off. F goes in the opposite direction of the rope sorry i dont know how to add pictures
