Answer:

D. More than half the length of AB ; 2 intersections needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Bisection implies dividing a given segment or angle into two equal halves.

To bisect AB, open the radius of the compass more than half the length of AB. With center A, describe an arc at the upper region of AB and below AB. Now, using B as the center, draw a second arc upward and downward to intersect the initial arcs at a point. Join the two points of intersection with a line passing through AB. Thus, AB has been bisected.

Correctly order the following numbers from LEAST to GREATEST:
ivanzaharov [21]

- 7 1/5 <  - 2.3 < 0 < π  < 23/7 is ascending order of these numbers.

What do descending order and ascending order mean?

  • Climbing down the stairs of numbers starting with their highest value is another way to think of descending.
  • The slide is descended while moving down it.
  • Ascending order, in which the numbers are organized from lower value to higher value, is the reverse of falling order.

The values are 0 , -2.3 , π , 23/7 , -71/5

first simplify all the values  0 , - 2.3 , 3.14 , 3.28 , -7.2

now arrange all value in Ascending order

 - 7.2 < -2.3 < 0 < 3.14 < 3.28

- 7 1/5 <  - 2.3 < 0 < π  < 23/7
