Given the following sketches, generate an Excel spreadsheet:

1) Count the total degrees of freedom in the sketch.

2) Count the constraints

3) Provide the number of dimensions that are necessary to fully constrain the sketch Deliverable

Copy and paste each given sketch onto your Excel spreadsheet.

Label the points using letters (A, B, C, … etc.) 

Part: 1

List the total degrees of freedom before the “ground” or any other constraints are used.

Highlight the total number of degrees of freedom, without consideration for the “ground” and the constraints.

Part: 2

List the degrees of freedom after all the shown constraints are considered o Highlight the total number of degrees of freedom after all the shown constraints are considered
