Determine the force in each member of the truss shown in (Figure 1). State if the members are in
tention or compression. Take that $P = 200 \text{ lb}$.
Part A
Determine the force in the member $CD$ of the truss, and state if the member is in tension or compression.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Assume positive scalars for members in tension and negative scalars for members in compression.
$F_{CD} = \boxed{?}$
