Answer:

You need a straight edge and a compass.

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight edge should not be marked in any way. You are not allowed to put a mark on the straight edge at all. The only property it has is that it has no curvature in any direction.

The compass must be flexible and at the same time it must be able to stay at one radius unless changed by the owner. It's only property is that it can draw a perfect  circle once the radius of the circle has been chosen,

PLEASE HELP!!! here are two different strategies to find the new price of a hat after a discount of 40%. The hat was originally
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1: Calculate 40% discount on original price, then subtract discount from original price.

Amount of discount = 40% of $30

= 0.40 × $30

= $12

New price = $30 - $12 = $18

Method 2:

New price = (100% - discount percentage) of original price

= 60% of original price

= 0.60 × $30

= $18

Answer:

16) The area of the circle is 25.1 units²

17) JKLM is a parallelogram but not a rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

16) Lets talk about the area of the circle

- To find the area of the circle you must find the length of the radius

- In the problem you have the center of the circle and a point on

 the circle, so you can find the length of the radius by using the

 distance rule

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The center of the circle is (1 , 3)

∵ The point on the circle is (3 , 5)

- Using the rule of the distance between two points

* Lets revise it

- The distance between the two points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

 Distance = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

∴ r = √[(3 - 1)² + (5 - 3)²] = √[4 + 4] = √8 = 2√2 units

∵ The area of the circle = πr²

∴ The area of the circle = π (2√2)² = 8π = 25.1 units²

* The area of the circle is 25.1 units²

17) To prove a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, prove that every

     to sides are parallel or equal or the two diagonal bisect

     each other

* The parallelogram can be rectangle if two adjacent sides are

  perpendicular to each other (measure of angle between them is 90°)

 or its diagonals are equal in length

- The parallel lines have equal slopes, then to prove the

  quadrilateral is a parallelogram, we will find the slopes of

  each opposite sides

* Lets find from the graph the vertices of the quadrilateral

∵ J = (0 ,2) , K (2 , 5) , L (5 , 0) , M (3 , -3)

- The opposite sides are JK , ML and JM , KL

- The slope of any line passing through point (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is

 m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

∵ The slop of JK = (5 - 2)/(2 - 0) = 3/2 ⇒ (1)

∵ The slope of LM = (-3 - 0)/(3 - 5)= -3/-2 = 3/2 ⇒ (2)

- From (1) and (2)

∴ JK // LM

∵ The slope of KL = (0 - 5)/(5 - 2) = -5/3 ⇒ (3)

∵ The slope of JM = (-3 - 2)/(3 - 0)= -5/3 ⇒ (4)

- From (3) and (4)

∴ KL // JM

∵ Each two opposite sides are parallel in the quadrilateral JKLM

∴ It is a parallelogram

- The product of the slopes of the perpendicular line is -1

* lets check the slopes of two adjacent sides in the JKLM

∵ The slope of JK = 3/2 and the slope of KL = -5/3

∵ 3/2 × -5/3 = -5/2 ≠ -1

∴ JKLM is a parallelogram but not a rectangle
