Answer:

Option B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are four options and we have to select the one which form a straight angle.

The given options are

A. Vertical Angles ... Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect and hence cannot combine to form a straight angle. Incorrect option.

B. Supplementary Angles ... Supplementary angles are a pair of angles which add upto 180 degrees and hence they form a straight angle. Correct option

C. Complementary Angles ... These pair add up to 90 degrees and cannot combine to form a straight angle. .. Incorrect

D. Linear Pair ... A linear pair is a pair of angles formed on a straight line and hence correct option.

Answer:

The answer to this is B, because supplementary angles sum up to 180 degrees, which means it is a straight angle.

In this fulcrum, for the weights to be balance, what do the distances d1 and d2 have to be if the overall length is 12 feet?

mel-nik [20]

For the fulcrum to balance, the product of weight and distance on both sides of the fulcrum must be the same.

Let d1= x. since total distance is 12, we can write d2 = 12 - x

for the fulcrum to balance:

60x = 50(12 - x)

60x = 600 - 50x

110x = 600

x = 5.45

Thus, d1= 5.45
and
d2= 12 - d1 = 12 - 5.45 = 6.55

d1 = 5.45
d2 = 6.55
