Question 1: The answer is <u>c. Yes, angles are complementary if (and only if) their sum measures to 90 degrees.</u>

This definition of complementary is reversible because both parts of the sentence, whatever order they are put, are true. And we can be sure of it, when rewriting the sentence into both conditional statement and conditional converse. Both conditionals, have a part of a sentence that is called "hypothesis" and other that is called "conclusion".

  • In conditional, the hypothesis clause comes first, and then the conclusion: <em>If the angles are complementary, then their sum measures to 90 degrees.</em>
  • In converse, the conclusion clause comes first and then the hypothesis: <em>If the sum of angles measures to 90 degrees, then the angles are complementary.</em>

When both sentences in the conditional and in the converse are true, then it is can be a biconditional sentence. Furthermore, the general structure of this type of sentence is First clause + If (and only if) + Second clause.

Question 2: The answer is <u>d. a ray is a bisector of an angle if and only if it splits the angle into two angles.</u>

A ray is a bisector of an angle only when the line segment splits the angle into two <u>equal</u> parts.

What is transitional words?
Elanso [62]

Answer:

A transition or linking word is a word or phrase that shows the relationship between paragraphs or sections of a text or speech. Transitions provide greater cohesion by making it more explicit or signaling how ideas relate to one another. Transitions are "bridges" that "carry a reader from section to section."

How can one topic in a text be the foundation for several themes?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

“Theme is the central message of a literary work. It is not the same as a subject, which can be expressed in a word or two: courage, survival, war, pride, etc. The theme is the idea the author wishes to convey about that subject. It is expressed as a sentence or general statement about life or human nature. A literary work can have more than one theme, and most themes are not directly stated but are implied. The reader must think about all the elements of the work and use them to make inferences, or reasonable guesses, as to which themes seem to be implied.

Explanation:

For example, if love is a topic/subject of two novels, a major theme in one of the novels could be “Love, if taken to extremes, can be negative rather than positive,” while in the other novel, the theme might be “Love can conquer even the greatest evil.” Notice that the topic/subject is the same, but the messages about that topic/subject are different in different works.
