Answer:

No, it does not, because the segments do not have the same length.

Explanation:

The segment AB is supposed to be copied.

The correct procedure is:

Put the tip of the compass on the point A
Open the compass till the point B
Without changing the width of the compass, put the tip of the compass on point C.
Draw an arc from C.
Draw a line from C until a point in the arc.
Mark and label the point of intersection as D.
Done.

Doing that, the length of the new segment CD equals the length of the segment AB.

Please explain how you got the answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify the equation they give you

125x+200≥1200 ---------> 125x≥1000---------->x≥8

So, x has to be greater than or equal to 8 which rules out b or d.

So the answers are narrowed down to a and c, the only difference is that the dot in A is filled in whereas the dot in c is not. In math, having a filled in circle means that value is included (≥ sign), so we will choose the answer a.

A floor tile is shaped like a regular hexagon. The side lengths are 4 cm and the apothem 23‾√ cm.

Nata [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>

geometry
PEMDAS

<h3>tips and formulas:</h3>

area of a regular hexagon when apothem is given:½×P×A

<h3>let's solve:</h3>

parimeter of a regular hexagon:6a

therefore

=½×[4×6]×2√3 cm²

simplify parentheses:

=½×24×2√3 cm²

simplify fraction:

=24×√3 cm²

=41.57cm²

Sammy is trying to determine how many triangles she can create out of a square grid that has a side of 14 inches. Use the image

saw5 [17]

Hello!

You first have to find the area of the square grid

To find this you multiply the sides

14 * 14 = 196

Next you have to find the area of the triangle

To find the area of a triangle you use the equation

$\frac{hb}{2}$

h is height
b is base

Put in the values you know
$\frac{7 * 14}{2}$

Multiply

$\frac{98}{2} = 49$

The area of the triangle is 49 inches squared

You divide the area of the triangle by the area of the square

196 / 49 = 4

The answer is 4 triangles

Hope this helps!
