Bending stress Definition and 52 Threads

The book's answer key shows a normal stress P/A as a result of adding the 350LB force from the cable to the cos(45 degrees)(350LB). It shows both of these as compressive forces. I can see how the cos(45 degrees)(350LB) is compressive; the force of the 350LB load is bending the boom clockwise...

How come in the lewis bending equation for spur gear tooth does the lewis form factor depend on x? x being the vertical distance measured from the triangle that is formed from the base t and fillet a. I know that you can express the height h and width t in terms of x such that x= t^2/4h, but why?
