I believe that the phrase from Mandela's speech that is an example of a metaphor is the first one - 'the children, [...] the greatest of our treasures."
A metaphor is a type of comparison, where two or more things are compared without using words such as <em>like </em>or <em>as. </em>Here, the children are the greatest of our treasures - they are compared to a treasure, something which is the most important thing of all.
To understand if they are noun phrases or not, it is necessary to understand its definition:
A noun phrase is a word or a set of words including a noun, whose function in a sentence can be: to act as a subject, an object or a prepositional object.
Sentence A is not a noun phrase. it is a prepositional phrase functioning as the postmodifier of the noun phrase (a lovely bouquet).
Sentence B is a noun phrase functioning as the subject of the sentence.
Sentence C is a noun phrase functioning as a direct object.
Sentence D is not a noun phrase, as it is a dependent clause and has not nouns in it.
Answer:
8/17
Explanation:
The cos of angle x is eight seventeenth and the triangle was dilated to be two times as big as the original:
Cos x = 8/17
Let the original triangle be ∆ABC
Dilated triangle be ∆DEF
Find attached the diagram.
All sides of the triangle are scaled by the same factor when we apply a dilation.
DE = 2 × AB
EF = 2 × BC
DF = 2 × AC
∠A = ∠D
∠B = ∠E
∠C = ∠F
Dilation also known as scaling does not affect angle measure. The angle measures remain the same.
Therefore, The value of the cos of x for the dilated triangle = 8/17
I feel that zoos should be free to public as it will help the poor people and children to explore and learn more about animals also it would be a very fun experience. Visiting and learning about animals shouldn’t cost any money.
I hope it helps
