The next step that should be taken by Ian to bisect segment CD is: A. swing arcs on both sides to intersect the first two arcs created.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length (numerical value).

In Geometry, a line segment can be measured by using the following measuring instruments:

  • A scale (ruler).
  • A divider.
  • A compass.

<h3>What is an arc?</h3>

In Geometry, an arc can be defined as a trajectory that is generally formed when the distance from a given point has a fixed length (numerical value).

Based on the information provided, the next step that should be taken by Ian to bisect segment CD is swinging arcs on both sides to intersect the first two arcs created.

<u>Complete Question:</u>

Ian is bisecting segment CD. First, Ian places the compass on point D, opens it to a width larger than half of the segment, and swings an arc on both sides of segment CD. Then, Ian keeps the compass the same width and places it on the other point C. What is the next step?

Swing arcs on both sides to intersect the first two arcs created.

Swing an arc that intersects the segment.

Swing arcs that intersect a point that is not on the segment.

Swing an arc that intersects the opposite endpoint.

The size of a television screen is measured by the length of thee diagonal of the screen. What size is a television screen that
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

approximately 6.708 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Pythagorean theorem to solve the problem, using 3 feet and 6 feet as the legs of a right angle triangle. The diagonal of the screen is therefore the "hypotenuse" of this right angle triangle, and can be determined via the formula:

diagonal = \sqrt{(3\,ft)^2+(6\,ft)^2} \\diagonal = \sqrt{9\,ft^2+36\,ft^2} \\diagonal = \sqrt{45} \,ft\\diagonal = 3\,\sqrt{5} \,ft

which is approximately 6.708 feet

\textrm {Cylinder volume :}

\mathrm {Volume = \pi r^{2}{h}}

\mathrm {Volume = 3.14 \times (\frac{4}{2})^{2} \times 3}

\mathrm {Volume = 3.14 \times 12}

\mathrm {Volume = 37.68cm^{3}}

\textrm {Rectangular prism volume :}

\mathrm {Volume = length \times width \times height}

\mathrm {Volume = 6 \times 5 \times 7}

\mathrm {Volume = 30 \times 7}

\mathrm {Volume = 210cm^{3}}

\textrm {Total volume of composite figure :}

\textrm {Volume of cylinder + volume of rectangular prism}

\mathrm {37.68 + 210}

\mathrm {247.68cm^{3}}
