The reaction components at $A,B,$ and $C$

act as shown for the space truss at the left.

The loads are $P=2000lb$ in the $+x$

direction and $F=3000lb$ in the $-y$

direction. Calculate the force in members

$EG,DG,FG,EF,ED,DF,AE$ and $CE$ and

state whether it is under compression or

tension. Hint: Use the method of joints and

start at $G.$
