Make a conjunction about the sum of interior angles of quadrilateral justify reasoning

I think instead of "conjunction" it should say "conjecture"

Anyways, draw out a quadrilateral (see figure 1 attached). It can be any figure with 4 sides. Label the angles as A, B, C and D. The conjecture to prove is that A+B+C+D = 360. In other words, the sum of the four angles of any quadrilateral is always 360 degrees.

Draw a segment from A to C. This segment will cut the quadrilateral into two triangles. Re-label angle A to angle E and F. Do the same for angle C (label it G and H). Essentially, angle A = E+F and angle C = G+H. 
See figure 2. Notice how I've color-coded things. The blue angles correspond to one triangle while the red angles correspond to the other triangle. 

Since we know that three angles of a triangle always add to 180, we can say
B+G+E = 180
F+D+H = 180

Add the two equations (add left side separately; do the same for the right side)
Doing so leads to
B+G+E+F+D+H = 180+180
(E+F) + B + (G+H) + D = 360
A+B+C+D = 360

Which proves the conjecture

An oil rig has a height of 74.98 m visible above water and extends 518.16 m below the surface to the sea floor. What is the tota
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

  1. So you know that the height that is visible above x=0 is 74.98 m
  2. From x=0 below it has a total height of 518.16m to the sea floor

That tells us that we have two parts account for

  1. 74.98+518.16m = 593.14 m

Awire 4 1/2 feet long is been cut into small pieces of wire each one and 1/4 feet long what is the maximum number of smaller pie
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Wire is 4 1/2 feet, or 4.5 feet.

Each smaller wire needs to be 1 1/4 feet, or 1.25 feet.

<em>How many whole 1.25 feet wire can we have from total of 4.5 feet wire?</em>

<em />

Let's divide:

\\frac{4.5}{1.25}=3.6

<em>thus we can have 3 whole "1.25 feet long" wire and fractional amount.</em>

<em />

<em>Hence, maximum number of smaller pieces is 3</em>
