Question: The crank ( link O 2 A ) rotates at a constant angular velocity of 1 0 rad / s counter - clockwise. It is

The crank (link O2A) rotates at a constant angular velocity of 10rad/s counter-clockwise. It is currently in a horizontal position.
The crank is pinned to a slider at point A. The slider translates on link 4(O4B). Link 4 and link 5(BC) are pinned at point B. Link 5 is pinned at C to a slider that translates in the horizontal direction. Link 4(O4B) has a length of 24 in .
Find the velocity of the slider (point C on link 6) and the angular velocity of links 4 and link 5 using the method of velocity polygons. Include magnitude and direction in your answer.
Please actually draw the velocity polygons! I can't get the drawings right! Thanks!
