A rectangular sign h = 20.0 cm high and w = 11.0 cm wide looses three of its
four support bolts and rotates into the position as shown, with P1 directly over
P3. It is supported by P2, which is so tight it holds the sign from further rotation.
Find the gravitational torque about P2, if the mass of the sign is 5.0 kg
A force of 17 N is applied to the end of a 0.63m long torque wrench at an angle 45° from a line joining the pivot point to the handle. What is the magnitude of the torque generated about the pivot point?

Cannot do 1, no "position as shown". Cannotimagine it from the p1 and p3 bits.
Regardless of which way the torque wrench is being pushed or pulled by the applied force, the force applied will be (cos or sine 45) x 17, = 12.02N.
That equates to (12.02 x .63) = 7.573N/m.
