       Draw a free body diagram of the entire frame and each of its legs.  Note that member {if(Fd=0,\"AB\",\"BC\")} is a two-force body and the direction of the line of action of force {if(Fd=0,\"A\",\"C\")} is known;  that means that FBD {if(Fd=0,'III','II')} has three unknowns. FBD I has four unknowns, and FBD {if(Fd=0,'II','III')} has no knowns.
