I'm working on inverse kinematics for a 4 dof planar manipulator. I want to solve the inverse kinematics for a given end effector position and orientation (dx,dy,dz, alpha) dz=0. Since it's planar, after I found the transformation matrix using DH notations, the 3rd element of the last column was zero, which means that the position of tip point ih base frame is : rp=T0-4*[0 0 0 1]T=[f(q) g(q) 0 1]T

Now I have a total of three equations : dx=f(q), dy=g(q) and alpha=q1+q2+q3+q4 which are the joint variables.

How I can solve 3 equations for 4 unknowns ( q1,q2,q3,q4) ?
