Answer

(a) Use KCL at Node A. $$ \begin{array}{r} {\quad i_{1}=6 A}\end{array} $$ --- (b) Use KCL at Node B. $$ \begin{aligned} i_{2} &=-4 A \end{aligned} $$

Work Step by Step

(a) Use KCL at Node A. $$ \begin{array}{r}{i_{1}+i_{b}-i_{a}-i_{c}=0} \\ {\qquad i_{1}=i_{a}-i_{b}+i_{c}} \\ {\quad i_{1}=6 A}\end{array} $$ --- (b) Use KCL at Node B. $$ \begin{aligned} i_{e}+i_{d}-i_{1}-i_{2}=0 \\ \begin{aligned} i_{2} &=i_{e}+i_{d}-i_{1} \\ i_{2} &=-4 A \end{aligned} \end{aligned} $$
