a) Identify any zero force members.
b) Solve for the reactions at A and the tension in the support cable at G.
c) Using the method of sections, determine the forces in members AG, GB, and BC.
Indicate for each member whether they are in tension or compression.
d) Using the method of joints, determine the forces in members DF, DC, FG, and FC.
Indicate for each member whether they are in tension or compression.
