ok, free body diagrams: |dw:1376057354986:dw| Newton's second laws: The objects are in equilibrium so net force in all directions must be zero. I can decompose the forces in two directions: horizontal and vertical: Let's first take object at left side: horizontal components: \[Fcos \theta -N_1\sin 50^0=0\] verical components: \[Fsin \theta +N_1\cos 50^0-P=0\] another object: horizontal components: \[Fcos \theta -N_2\sin 30^0=0\] vertical components: \[Fsin 30^0 +Q-N_2\cos 30^0=0\] and if you solve for theta you should get: \[\tan \theta=\frac{ P \cot 30^0-Qcot 50^0 }{ P+Q } \rightarrow \theta=10,72^0\] F is the force that object A acts on object B and vice versa (Newton's third law)
