Question: For the truss shown, determine a ) ( 8 pts ) Any zero - force members through inspection only b ) ( 2 5 pts

For the truss shown, determine
a)(8 pts) Any zero-force members through inspection only
b)(25 pts) The forces in members AB, AL, CD, DE, DH, DG, EG, and GH through the method of joints
c)(12 pts ) The forces in members BC, BI, and II through the method of sections**
You must solve for BC,BI, and II with equations where each member is the only member in the equation (for example, you cannot use BC in an equation that solves for Cl even if you know BC-BI must be the only member in the equation).
For the truss shown, determine a ) ( 8 pts ) Any
