1 answer:

6 0

Long before concrete made its appearance on the building scene in Rome, the Romans utilized a volcanic stone native to Italy called tufa to construct their buildings. Although tufa never went out of use, travertine began to be utilized in the late 2nd century B.C.E. because it was more durable.

Answer:

The attributes of a three-dimensional figure are faces, edges and vertices. The three dimensions compose the edges of a 3D geometric shape. A cube, rectangular prism, sphere, cone and cylinder are the basic 3-dimensional shapes we see around us. In geometry, matrices are widely used for specifying and representing geometric transformations (for example rotations) and coordinate changes. In numerical analysis, many computational problems are solved by reducing them to a matrix computation, and this involves often to compute with matrices of huge dimension.

How do you think Female Artist are being treated today? Is it in their best interest? If so, why? If not, what could be done bet

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The way female artists are treated today is what I believe is of their best interest, but of course progression should never stop. Back then the arts was a field of interest that was specifically for men because women were expected to pursue household duties only. However over time as boundaries were lifted they were allowed to explore artistic pursuites. In today's time there are a large amount of female artists and the arts is often now considered to be a "girly" field of study. That means it's somewhat expected of a female to have an interest in art than in something such as science. This definitely is in the best interest of female artists but not in the best interest of females as a whole. Today it's also much easier for female artists to have exposure because of social media platforms and communities that are designated to art.
