F1 is trying to cause a rotation around O.
the moment of the force is the product of the size of the force times the perpendicular distance from O to the line of action of the force
You can use trig to get d.

Sometimes it is easier to split F1 into a horizontal component (F1cos30) and a vertical component (F1sin30) and then get the moment of each.
As the vertical component acts through O it will have zero moment.
If you do it this way you'll get the same answer so it would be worth trying both just for the practice.
