Why do masses of partially melted rock or magma rise or intrude the surrounding rocks?

Geography
1 answer:
valentinak56 [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The melted magma or partially melted rock rise or intrude the surrounding rocks because of the buoyancy. The partially melted rocks or magma due their high temperature become less dense than the surrounding rocks and rise up. And then these heated rock or magma react with surrounding rocks which in turn increases the pressure in the magma chamber. This intermixing of magma with surrounding rocks forms another type of rocks called igneous rocks.

Select all statements that are true about the triangles. Triangles A B C ABC and D C B DCB are congruent by the Angle-Angle Tria
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Two triangles are said to be equal if all their three sides and all their three angles are exactly equal to each other.

Given triangle ABC and Triangle DCB, we can see that:

∠A = ∠D, |AB| = |CD|, |AC| = |BD| and they share the same side BC. Hence:

a) By the side-side-side (SSS) triangle congruence theorem the two triangles are equal. i.e. |AB| = |CD|, |AC| = |BD| and they share the same side BC.

b) By the side-angle-side (SAS) triangle congruence theorem the two triangles are equal. i.e. |AB| = |CD|, |AC| = |BD| and ∠A = ∠D.
