Answer:

The foundation may be a rectangle: 24 squared + 32 squared = 40 squared.

Explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral (that is it has four sides). The opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel to each other. Also the opposite sides are equal to each other. The four angles of a rectangle are equal to each other and measure 90° each.

The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other. The relationship between the length, width and diagonal of a rectangle is given by:

Diagonal² = length² + width²

Given that length = 24 feet, width = 32 feet, diagonal = 40 feet, we prove that it is rectangle using:

Diagonal² = 24² + 32²

Diagonal² = 1600

Diagonal² = 40²

Hence: 40² = 24² + 32²

How do you evaluate a poem with detail?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Connect to the Author and Time Period

The context of a poem sheds light on the overall meaning of the words. The time period and biography of a poet will give insight that may be hard to decipher just by reading the poem out of context. A good example is the famous poem "Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe. This narrative poem describes the untimely death of a beautiful woman. A close look at Poe's life reveals that he lost several women close to him, including his mother, stepmother and beloved wife. The poem is also Poe's last known work and one of Poe's only poems with a positive message: that the speaker and Annabel Lee will be reunited after death. When in doubt about the meaning of a poem, research the poet and his era for missing clues.
