Depth of the well=30 feet
length the snail ascends during day = 3 feet
length it descends at night = 2 feet
therefore, the equivalent length it covers at the end of the day=(3-2)feet = 1 feet
So, After 27 days it will cover: 27 feet
Then, the next day it will cover : (27+3) feet = 30 feet
Therefore, the snail takes (27+1)days i.e. 28 days to climb out of the well.......

Answer:

The two column proof can be presented as follows;

Statement                     {}                   Reason

1. p║q                    {}                        Given

∠1 ≅ ∠11

2. ∠1 ≅ ∠9                     {}               Corresponding angles on parallel lines

3. ∠9 ≅ ∠11                    {}               Transitive property of equality

4. a║b                    {}                       Corresponding angles on parallel lines are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements in the two column proof can be explained as follows;

Statement                     {}                Explanation

1. p║q                    {}                        Given

∠1 ≅ ∠11

2. ∠1 ≅ ∠9                     {}               Corresponding angles on parallel lines crossed by a common transversal are congruent

3. ∠9 ≅ ∠11                    {}               Transitive property of equality

Given that ∠1 ≅ ∠11 and we have that ∠1 ≅ ∠9, then we can transit the terms between the two expressions to get, ∠9 ≅ ∠11 which is the same as ∠11 ≅ ∠9

4. a║b                    {}                       Corresponding angles on parallel lines are congruent

Whereby we now have ∠9 which is formed by line a and the transversal line q, is congruent to ∠11 which is formed by line b and the common transversal line q, and both ∠9 and ∠11 occupy corresponding locations on lines a and b respectively which are crossed by the transversal, line q, then lines a and b are parallel to each other or a║b.
