The tools that were used by ancient mathematicians to make geometric constructions are compasses and straightedges. A compass is a drawing instrument used to draw circles and arcs. The straightedges on the other hand is a tool to check on the accuracy of a straight line.

Answer:

Compasses and straightedges.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The tool used by the ancient "Greek" mathematician to make geometric construction was the compasses and straightedges.
  • The compasses and straightedges can be used to combine to transfer the segment of the given length onto a line.
  • This can be done by only the following two steps:
  1. Put point A and open it, till mark is visible on point B.
  2. Liftoff and put the point on C and mark it on point D till its visible.
  • The compasses and straightedges are used to trace the part of the triangle.

Which statement is true about the equations –3x + 4y = 12 and 1/4x –1/3 y = 1?The system of the equations has exactly one soluti
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The system of the equations has no solution; the two lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations have the same slope. In standard form, this can be seen as the same coefficients for x and y. We will multiply the second equation by -12 to reveal this.

\frac{1}{4} x-\frac{1}{3}y=1 \\-12(\frac{1}{4} x-\frac{1}{3}y=1)\\\frac{-12}{4} x-\frac{-12}{3}y=-12\\-3x+4y=-12

This means the equations are parallel and will never cross. There is no solution.
