The step is necessary because it measures the radius of the inscribed circle

Step-by-step explanation:

In construction of an incenter, you first draw the angle bisector of at least two angles of the triangle, followed by constructing a perpendicular from the incenter to one side of the triangle to locate the exact radius then adjusting the compass point from the incenter and measure from the center to where the perpendicular crosses the side of the triangle.This last step measures the radius which will guide you in drawing the inscribed circle with correct measurements.

What is the vertex of the absolute value function defined by ƒ(x) = |x + 2| + 4?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

C. (-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function $f(x)=|x+2|+4$ and we are asked to find the vertex of our absolute value function.

The rules for the translation of a function are as follows:

$f|x-h|=\text{Graph shifted to right by h units}$

$f|x+h|=\text{ Graph shifted to left by h units}$

$f|x|+h=\text{ Graph shifted upward by h units}$

$f|x|-h=\text{ Graph shifted down by h units}$

Upon comparing our absolute function with above transformations we can see that our function is shifted to two units right of the origin(0,0) so x coordinate of our absolute function will be -2.

Our function is shifted upward from origin by 4 units, therefore, y-coordinate of our absolute value function will be 4.

$f(x)=|x--2|+4$

Therefore, the vertex of our absolute value function will be on point (-2,4) and option C is the correct choice.
