Answer:

  John should use a protractor to measure an angle of 70°.

Step-by-step explanation:

70° is an angle for which there is no construction procedure.

Angles of measures 15°, 18°, 30°, 36°, and 45° can be constructed, along with their supplements, complements, and values multiplied by any positive integer or divided by any power of 2. Of course, the sums and differences of any of these angles can be constructed. (The more steps in the construction, the greater the loss of accuracy.)

Because there is no construction procedure for an angle of 70°, John must create the angle using a measuring tool. A protractor is the tool of choice.

John should use a protractor to measure an angle of 70° relative to one end of his 5 cm baseline.

<em>Comment on John's technique</em>

It is likely John would create a more accurate representation of the desired triangle by drawing the 7 cm segment first. This would give a longer baseline for use with the protractor, and would mean the length through the point marked using the protractor would not have to be extrapolated as far.

A glass of water was seven- eighths of a liter. With a 6 liter jug, how many glasses could you pour? Do you have to multiply div
ivolga24 [154]

Let us suppose, we pour x glass of water.

The given jug is of 6 liters. And the glass of water was seven- eighths of a liter. Hence, we have the below equation

\frac{7}{8} x= 6

Now, in order to solve for x, we will divide 6 with 7/8. So, we have to divide.

x=\frac{6}{7/8} \\&#10;\\&#10;x=\frac{48}{7} \\&#10;\\&#10;x=6.9

Hence, we can pour 7 glass of water. But the 7th glass is not full of water. It is partially full.

Which phrase best describes a theorem in an axiomatic system? A.) the accepted meaning of a term B.) an assumption made with lit
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

In Maths, axioms are basically set of propositions from which we can derive true statements from logic. Then these statements are known as theorems.

Hence, defining theorem in an axiomatic way means that a statements that we derive from axioms (propositions) using logic and that is proven to be true.

From the answer choices, we see D goes with this, hence D is the correct answer.
