A rift valley is a linear shaped lowland between several highlands or mountain ranges created by the action of a geologic rift or fault. A rift valley is formed on a divergent plate boundary, a crustal extension or spreading apart of the surface, which is subsequently further deepened by the forces of erosion.

Sides QU and DA of quadrilateral QUAD are parallel. Sides UA and DA each measure 4 inches. What additional information would gua
Lilit [14]

The additional information that will guarantee that the quadrilateral QUAD is a rhombus would be that all the sides have equal length, and that the opposite angles are the same.

The rhombus is a simple quadrilateral in which all of the four sides have the exact same length. In this case, since the sides UA and DA are 4 inches each, the sides QU and QD  will also have the same length.  

Also, the opposite sides are parallel, so we will have two sets of parallel sides with the same length.

The opposite angles in the rhombus are the same, so we would have two sets of opposite angles with the same values.

If a single family residence is constructed on the cleared lot what processes will control the surface runoff from the lot
zzz [600]

Answer:

As the region is deforested, the topography, gravity, soil permeability and terrain slope will control the runoff, as well as the intensity of the rain.

Explanation:

Runoff occurs when water flows over a soil that is saturated, that is, soaked. What controls the runoff efficiently is the native vegetation of the place, however, when this area is cleared, the soil is completely at the mercy of saturation, causing the runoff to be controlled by topography, gravity, permeability of the soil and the slope of the terrain, as well as the intensity of the rain.
