Draw a line segment 7cm long .
1 answer:
Answer:
The line segment 7 cm long is shown below.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we draw a line line segment whose length is 7 cm long. Then we divide the line in small parts.
The length of each part is 1 cm.
Six points on the line segment divides the line in 7 equal parts and length of each part is 1 cm.
From the figure it is noticed that we have total 7 small parts and length of each part is 1 cm. So length of 7 parts is
Hence the total length of line is 7 cm.

Answer:
about 106 km
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the two towns can be estimated several ways. In the attachment, we chose to measure the angles on the map. Using the law of sines, we can estimate the unknown distance.
The distance can also be estimated using the Tounouse-Avaria distance as a ruler. For best results, that ruler would need to be subdivided to an appropriate level.

<h3>angle measures</h3>The angles in the triangle can be measured using a protractor or some other tool. The attachment shows the results from a geometry program:
- ∠TMA ≈ 107°
- ∠TAM ≈ 24°
The law of sines tells us the distances are proportional to the sines of the opposite angles:
TM/sin(TAM) = TA/sin(TMA)
TM = sin(24°)×(250 km)/sin(107°) ≈ 106.3 km
The distance from Tounouse to Mt. Monotti is estimated to be about 106 km.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
Using a compass or dividers to project the TM distance onto TA, we find it is between 0.4 and 0.5 of the TA distance. The difference between 2×TM and TA can be estimated to be about 0.4×TM. That is, ...
TM ≈ TA/2.4 ≈ (250 km)/2.4 ≈ 104.2 km
This estimate is consistent with the one found using angle measures.
