Jay is copying an angle. His work so far is shown below. Explain the importance of his next step, which is placing the point of

the compass on L, opening the compass to N, and drawing an arc.
A. This ensures that when he draws another arc for angle Y, that it will be the right distance from point Z. <-- MY ANSWER


B. This arc is to make sure that both L and N are equidistant from M.


C. This arc makes sure that the distance from L to N is the same as the distance from Y to Z.


D. This way there will be two arcs drawn on both angles when he is done.

Answer:

  your answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose here, we'll call the missing point on the arc through Z point X.

Essentially, you want to make ΔXYZ ≅ ΔLMN by SSS. The construction so far ensures LM ≅ MN ≅ XY ≅ YZ. By copying the length LN to XZ, you ensure the congruence of the remaining sides of the triangles.

Then ∠XYZ ≅ ∠LMN because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

In short, XZ needs to be the same distance as LN.

If you run 4 1/2 miles in three quarter of an hour, how many miles would you run in two thirds
olga_2 [115]

Answer:4

Step-by-step explanation: each quarter of an hour is 1.5 miles they both can go into 12 so if you multiply 2*4 and 3*4 you get 8/12 and if you multiply 3*3 and 4*3 you get 9/12 then you subtract 9/12 by 8/12 to get so 1/12=1/2 miles so you would subtract 4 1/2 by 1/2 to get 4

Explain how you can find 4 times 754 using two different methods.
ludmilkaskok [199]
Method 1:

4(754)

=4(700+50+4)

=2800 + 200 + 16

=3000+16

=3016

-----------------

Method 2:

4(754)

=4(250+250+250+4)

=1000+1000+1000+16

=3016

Can someone please explain to me how to do this.

Y = x² - 4x + 4
y = 2x - 4

Find intersection of L and C:
x² - 4x + 4 = 2x - 4
x² - 6x + 8 = 0
<span> (x - 2)(x - 4) = 0
x = 2 or x = 4

When x = 2 , y = 2(2) - 4 = 0
When x = 4, y = 2(4) - 4 = 4

Points of intersection = A(2, 0) and B(4, 4)

Find the length of AB:

</span>&#10;\text {Length of AB}=  \sqrt{(4-0)^2 + (4-2)^2} =  \sqrt{16 + 4} = \sqrt{20}  = 4.47 \text{ units}
<span>
Answer: 4.47 units
