Answer:

Construct the angle bisector of angle Y

Step-by-step explanation:

-An inscribed circle is defined as the largest circle that can be drawn within the boundaries of a plane figure.

-The first step in constructing an inscribed circle is to bisect any two angles of the plane figure, triangle in this case, as there intersection point will form the circle's center.

=>Hence, the first step is Construct the angle bisector of angle Y or Z or X( whichever you decide on).

A single, six-sided die is rolled. Find the probability of rolling an even number or a number less than 5.

Svetach [21]

The probability of rolling an odd number or a number less than 5 is 5/6.

Probability is the likelihood of the occurrence of an event. It is the ratio of number of events to number of possible outcomes.

The possible outcome from rolling a six-sided die is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6

P(odd number) = 3/6; P(less than 5) = 4/6; P(odd number and less than 5) = 2/6

Hence:

P(odd number or less than 5) = 3/6 + 4/6 - 2/6 = 5/6

The probability of rolling an odd number or a number less than 5 is 5/6.

Which of the following illustrates a phase shift?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

A. y = -2 - cos(x-π)

Explanation:

The general form of the trig equation is:

y = A sin (Bx + C) + D

where:

A is the amplitude

$\frac{2\pi}{B}$ is the period

$\frac{-C}{B}$ is the phase shift

D is the vertical shift

Now, let's check the choices:

A. y = -2 - cos(x-π)

$\frac{-C}{B} = \frac{\pi}{1} = \pi$

Therefore, the function has a phase shift of π

B. y = 3 cos(4x)

$\frac{-C}{B} = \frac{0}{4} = 0$

Therefore, the function has no phase shift

C. y = tan(2x)

$\frac{-C}{B} = \frac{0}{2} = 0$

Therefore, the function has no phase shift

D. y = 1 + sin(x)

$\frac{-C}{B} = \frac{0}{1} = 0$

Therefore, the function has no phase shift

Based on the above, the correct answer is A

Hope this helps :)
