Math is solved below.

All that is needed: is Neglecting the effect of friction, write a computer program and use it to determine the couple moment, MA, required to hold the rods in equilibrium for values of from 0 to 120 using 10 increments. For the same values of , determine the magnitude of the force F exerted by rod AC on the slider block.

Original problem:

The design of a robotic system calls for the two-rod mechanism shown. Rods AC and BD connected by slider block D as shown. Neglecting the effect of friction, write a computer program and use it to determine the couple moment, MA, required to hold the rods in equilibrium for values of from 0 to 120 using 10 increments. For the same values of , determine the magnitude of the force F exerted by rod AC on the slider block.
