To check for simple truss, start with ABDE and add three members at a time which meet at a single new
joint, successively adding joints G, F, H and C.
This is a simple truss !
There are six reaction force components, Ax, Ay, Az, By, Bz, and Gy, no two of which are colinear, so all
can be determined with the six equilibrium equations. Motion is prevented by the constraints.
Truss is completely constrained, and statically determinate. !

And finally, considering joint D knowing that FAD = FCD = FDH = 0, and recognizing that the three
remaining members are not co-planar, they must also carry zero load, FBD = FDE = FGH = 0.
The only load bearing members are thus AB, AE, BE, BG, EG, EH, GH.

Non-simple truss with r = 4, m = 12, n = 8
