This unit focused, in part, on relationships in triangles. A triangle is the simplest type of polygon and is frequently used in

construction. Explain why triangles are often used to build bridges, roofs, buildings, and other structures. Which properties of a triangle make it a desirable geometric shape for these applications? Which type of triangle is best? Why is the triangle preferred over other types of polygons? Explain in a paragraph.

The answers are as follows:
1. Triangles are often used to build different types of support structures because of its beneficial properties. Triangles is rigid in shape and it has strength. When force is applied to the side of a triangle, it can not shift into another shape, this is because its sides and angles are fixed. 
2. The properties of triangle that make it a desirable geometric shape for building support structures is its fixed sides, fixed angles, rigidity and strength. Triangles are the strongest shapes and they are stable. Thus, triangle can be easily fix together to provide strength and stability over a wide area.
3. There are different types of triangles, these include: equilateral triangle, scalene, isosceles, right triangle, obtuse and acute. Of all these triangles, the best triangle is equilateral triangle.  
4. Triangle is preferred over other types of polygon because, it is the strongest. The other polygons can be bent into different other forms that are not regular polygon, but a triangle always retains its shape and can not be deformed.

Answer: Answer below i made it so i wouldnt get copyright hehe

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are often used to build bridges, roofs, and other structures because of their shape and the strength it has. The properties of triangle that make it desirable are the fixed angles and sides. Triangles are best because they are stable and strong in many ways. A triangle is preferred over other types of polygon because it is the strongest. Polygons can be formed and bent into different forms although a triangle always stays in its shape and can not be changed, moved or deformed.

What is the probability of drawing an even numbered card, keeping it, and then drawing another even numbered card from a stack o
Oksanka [162]

Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

In a stack of 24, the 2 mediums are odd and even cards in this question. This means that 1/2 the cards are even and 1/2 are odd. To get a even card once is a 1/2 chance, then to get it again is 1/2 x 1/2 chance or 1/4 chance. This is what I think.

Kyle is stringing a necklace with beads he puts black beads on 5/8 of the string and white beads on 1/4 of the string Kyle think
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:Kyle’s claim is not reasonable

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the string of the necklace that Kyle covered with black beads is 5/8.

Total length of the string of the necklace that Kyle covered with white beads is 1/4.

Total length of the string of the necklace that Kyle covered with black beads and white beads is would be

1/4 + 5/8 = 7/8 = 0.875

Kyle thought that he will cover 6/12 of the string with beads. 6/12 = 0.5

It means that he covered more than 6/12. Kyle's claim was wrong
