Ds = Dsi + Dse = 4 + 1= 5.

4 - 3 + 3 * 2 - 2 = 5.

@Ajinkya.

Can you please elaborate the answer?

Dsi=4-3=1.
Dse=3*2=6.
Ds=1+6-2=5.

3 * 9 + 4 - 3 * 8 - 2 = 5.

(Total unkown)-(equilb eq).
(3m+r)-(3j+a).
a=factor use for internal hinge.

In loop method, Dse=R-3. Where R is External Reaction..Dsi = 3*No of close loop - Additional condition of equilibrium (members-1).

Dse=3+1+1-3=1.
Dsi = 3 * 2-(m-1)-(m-1) = 6-(2-1)-(2-1)=4 .

Hinge is placed in between 2member so (m-1) is (2-1).

3*7 + 4-3 * 6-2 = 5.

Thank you all for explaining.

Ds=Dse+Dsi.
Dse= no.Of reactions(r) - no.of equilibrium equn(s)
Dse= 4 - 3.
Dse= 1

Dsi= 3( no of closed-loop in a structure) -releases( when a hinge is present between members)

i.e, if the hinge is present between 2 members= m-1=2-1=1.
Dsi = 3C-1-1= 3(2)-2 = 6 - 2 = 4.
Ds = 1 + 4 = 5.
