Answer:

The given statement:

The midpoint of a line can be found using either a compass and straightedge construction or a straightedge and tracing paper construction is a TRUE statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

The construction of a mid-point with the help of a compass is same as the construction of perpendicular bisector of a line segment.

Also,

To construct the midpoint of a line segment using straightedge and a tracing paper

  • ,start by drawing a line segment on a  paper.
  • Next, fold the paper so that the endpoints of the line segment overlap.
  • This creates a crease in the paper.
  • The intersection of the crease and the original line segment is the midpoint of the line segment.

Hence, the given statement is  a TRUE statement.

Translations, rotations, and reflections are rigid transformations. What can you conclude about the measures of sides and angles
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

After a translation, the measures of the sides and angles on any triangle would be the same since translation only involves changing the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle.

After a rotation, the measures of the sides and angles of a triangle would also be the same. Similar to translation, the proportion of the triangle is unchanged after a rotation.

After a reflection, the triangle's sides and angles would still be the same since reflection is a rigid transformation and the proportion of the sides and angles are not changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rigid transformations, i.e. translations, rotations, and reflections, preserve the side lengths and angles of any figure. Therefore, after undergoing a series of rigid transformations, the side lengths and angle measures of any triangle will be the same as the original triangle, generally speaking, in another position.

The legs if an isosceles triangle are (3x^2+4x+2) inches and the base is (4x-5) inches. Find the perimeter of the triangle
alexdok [17]

Answer:

P=(6x^2+12x-1)\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles

so

The perimeter of triangle is equal to

P=2(3x^2+4x+2)+(4x-5)

Eliminate parenthesis

P=6x^2+8x+4+4x-5

Combine like terms

P=(6x^2+12x-1)\ in
