Write the MATLAB code and use the function linsolve() to solve the system of linear equations. Thank you! l Truss A truss is a structure that typically consists of 1. All straight members 2. connected together with pin joints 3. connected only at the ends of the members 4. and all external forces (loads&reactions) must be applied only at the joints. The weights of the members may be neglected. The basic building block of a truss is a triangle. Large...
