When two tectonic plates collide/converge, usually a continental and an oceanic plate, the oceanic plate is submerged by the tectonic one because it is denser. The plate dives into the mantle and is consumed. The boundary, therefore, keeps ‘eating’ up the oceanic  plate hence reduces it over time. An example is the Mariana Trench (a subduction zone) in the Pacific ocean. The Pacific ocean, therefore, continues to shrink over time.

On the other hand, divergent boundaries (such as the one in the Atlantic Ocean) make new crust.

If you add the two lengths on the left, you can figure out that one side is 100 units and the base is 50. In the smaller triangle, the ratio of base length to side length should be the same. If the big triangle is 50:100, then the small triangles base should be 1/2 it’s side. 1/2 of 60 is...

30 units
Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

My personal American cultural experience was with the Navajo people in Arizona. My family and I went on a trip last summer and visited the zone of Sedona, Arizona, and the Grand Canyon region.

Right there, we had an experience in which we were exposed to multiple different cultures of North America because, in one of the tours we took to the Grand Canyon, there were white Americans, African Americans, Hispanic people, and the Navajo people.

This experience was very interesting and affected me in that I had the opportunity to meet very interesting people that thought very different but all of them were very good people.

Sometimes we think that if people are different from us, they are wrong. But that is not the truth. These different people from different backgrounds were classy people, and for me, it resulted very interesting to be exposed to many kinds of thinking and noticed their cultures, customs, and traditions.

One of the days, the tour guide took us to a real Navajo reservation close to the Grand Canyon. By the way, what an impressive place. I think it is a natural wonder that everybody must visit soon.

So on that day, we were introduced to a real Navajo family and they allowed us to know more about the way they live, how they raise their children, where they go to school, how they celebrate their festivities. In the afternoon, we attended a special ceremony with chants and dances, where Navajo people pay tribute to mother nature.

Boy, it was a really interesting experience
