Answer: True.

The ancient Greeks could bisect an angle using only a compass and straightedge.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ancient Greek mathematician <em>Euclid</em> who is known as inventor of geometry.

The Greeks could not do arithmetic. They had only whole numbers. They do not have zero and negative numbers.

Thus, Euclid and the another Greeks had the problem of finding the position of an angle bisector.

This lead to the constructions using compass and straightedge. Therefore, the straightedge has no markings. It is definitely not a graduated-rule.

As a substitute for using arithmetic, Euclid and the Greeks learnt to solve the problems graphically by drawing shapes .

The line parellel to 2x+y=5 and passing through (5,4) has equation
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

y=-2x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are looking for a line parallel to 2x+y=5.

Then we are looking for an equation with the same slope as the equation 2x+y=5.

To obtain the slope of equaiton 2x+y=5 I will put it in slope-intercept form.

Luckily there is only one step which is to subtract 2x on both sides.

y=-2x+5

The slope of this line is -2

The slope of parallel line will also be -2.

So we know our equation is in the form y=-2x+b

To find b we will just use the point (x,y)=(5,4) we know is on the line.

Plug in and solve for b.

4=-2(5)+b

4=-10+b

14=b

So the equation that is parallel to 2x+y=5 and goes through (5,4) is y=-2x+14

An interior angle and an exterior angle are adjacent. The exterior angle measures 113°. What is the measure of the interior angl
Nuetrik [128]
Since all straight lines have an angle of 180 degrees if the exterior angle is equal to 113 degrees than you just subtract 113 from 180 which will equal 67.
