What is the area of the triangle

History
1 answer:
nlexa [21]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  • <u>3 unit²</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

The figure attached shows the three points, Q(-2,5), R(4,5), and S(-5,4), in a coordinate plane.

The points Q and R have the same y-coordinate, then if you set them as the base of the triangle, the height from S to Q is the altitude:

  • Base: 4unit - (-2unit) = 4unit + 2unit = 6 units
  • Altitude: 5unit - 4unit = 1 unit

Area of a triangle = base × altitude / 2

  • Area of the triangle QRS: 6unit × 1unit / 2 = 3 unit²

That answer does not match either answer choice. But it is the area of a triangle with the given vertices Q,R,S.

If your vertices are others, you can just follow the same procedure: find the base and the altitude and use the formula for the area used above.

What does it mean to preserve protect and defend the constitution
Katen [24]

Answer:

What is the time relationship between a President’s assumption of office and his taking the oath? Apparently, the former comes first, this answer appearing to be the assumption of the language of the clause. The Second Congress assumed that President Washington took office on March 4, 1789,1 although he did not take the oath until the following April 30.

That the oath the President is required to take might be considered to add anything to the powers of the President, because of his obligation to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, might appear to be rather a fanciful idea. But in President Jackson’s message announcing his veto of the act renewing the Bank of the United States there is language which suggests that the President has the right to refuse to enforce both statutes and judicial decisions based on his own independent decision that they were unwarranted by the Constitution.2 The idea next turned up in a message by President Lincoln justifying his suspension of the writ of habeas corpus without obtaining congressional authorization.3 And counsel to President Johnson during his impeachment trial adverted to the theory, but only in passing.4 Beyond these isolated instances, it does not appear to be seriously contended that the oath adds anything to the President’s powers.

3. How did the views of Native Americans and Europeans differ in terms of property ownership?
Ksenya-84 [330]
The views of Native Americans and Europeans differed in terms of property ownership because under English law, discoveries were made in the name of the sovereign and all lands belonged to the monarch, to be disposed of at the will of the crown. Joint stock companies received charters from the crown and parceled out land.

Why did Allan Bakke file a lawsuit?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The correct answer is D. He felt he was denied admission to school based on race.

Explanation:

Allan Bakke, a white male, applied multiple times to be admitted at a medical school; however, he failed every time. Due to this, in 1974 Bakke decided to sue the University of California (the last institution he applied to) arguing he had been discriminated based on race because some minority students had lower scores than him, and they were admitted due to race quotas. This case ended with the decision of the Supreme Court that forbade racial quotas, ordered the admission of Bakke, but still allowed the race to be considered as part of admissions. According to this, the correct answer is "He felt he was denied admission to school based on race."
