Transcribed Image Text:The image contains handwritten notes and a diagram related to the analysis of a truss structure.
### Transcription
#### Text Instructions
- **Solve for:** DE, EF, GF, GE
- **Note:** For extra credit, solve the entire truss
#### Diagram Explanation
The diagram illustrates a truss with several joints and members. Important details include:
- **Joints:** The diagram shows joints labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F.
- **Applied Loads:**
- At joint B, a vertical downward force of 4 kN is applied.
- At joint D, an oblique force directed upwards and to the right of 5 kN at an angle of 30 degrees is applied.
- **Supports:**
- Joint A has a support reaction labeled R1.
- Joint F has another support reaction labeled R2.
- **Truss Members:**
- The truss consists of triangular units, with each segment marked with angles of 45 degrees, indicating equal forces along some of the truss members.
- **Dimensions:**
- Horizontal segments between points are 20 units long.
This diagram is useful for practicing truss analysis using methods like the method of joints or the method of sections.
