3.  Figure 3 shows a truss subjected to a horizontal force of 500N

                  i.      Calculate the force in each member of the truss
                 ii.      Identify whether the members in tension or compression


























                                                                                        Figure 3








                4.    Determine  the  force  in  each  member  of  the  truss  in  figure  4  by  using  the  method  of

                      joint.State whether each member is in tension or compression.
