Let's consider that 23.5 is 100% of rainfall.
23.5 ..... 100 %
21.2 ..... x %

Calculate x:
x = \frac{21.2 \cdot 100}{23.5} = 90.212766, which is around 90.2%.

The percent of decrease is 100 - 90.2 = 9.8 %.

I. Tell whether each statement is TRUE or FALSE. Refer to the figure below. Write your answer on the space provided.

Answer:

1. TRUE

2. TRUE

3. TRUE

4. TRUE

5. FALSE

6. TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

1. From the diagram, we have that m∠2 and m∠7 are alternate interior angles

If m∠2 = 70° and m∠7 = 70°, then we have;

m∠2 = 70° = m∠7

m∠2 = m∠7

Therefore, the alternate interior angles of the lines l₁, and l₂ are equal, and therefore, the lines l₁ and l₂ are parallel, l₁ ║ l₂

TRUE

2. If m∠3 = 90° and m∠7 = 90°, therefore, the angle formed by the intersection of l₃ and l₂ = 90°

Therefore l₃ ⊥ l₂

TRUE

3. m∠5 and m∠7 are corresponding angles

If m∠5 = 85° and m∠7 = 85°, then, m∠5 = m∠7

Therefore, the corresponding angles formed by the lines l₁ and l₂ are equal, therefore;

l₁ ║ l₂

TRUE

4. Whereby we have, m∠1 = m∠5, we get;

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180° by sum of angles on a straight line

∴ m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠1 + m∠1 = 2·m∠1 = 180°

m∠1 = 180°/2 = 90°

∴ m∠1 = 90° = m∠5, and l₃ ⊥ l₁

TRUE

5. m∠1 and m∠8 are alternate exterior angles

If m∠1 = 98° and m∠8 = 82°

∴ m∠1 ≠ m∠8 and l₁ ∦ l₈

FALSE

6. Given that l₁║ l₂, then the angle formed between l₁ and l₃ will be equal to th angle formed between l₂ and l₃

Therefore;

If l₁║ l₂, and l₃ ⊥ l₁, then l₃ ⊥ l₂

(If l₁║ l₂, and l₃ is perpendicular to l₁, then l₃ is also perpendicular to l₂)

TRUE

What is a reasonable measure for the angle shown?

I would say 120 since it’s not at the end near 170

Supplementary angle must add up to 180 so the supplement will be 108 degrees. 180-72=108.

Please someone help me‼️

Answer:

6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is found by \frac{\pi r^2h}{3}, so we can plug the values in to get 6pi * r^2 / 3 = 72pi, or 6pi * r^2 = 216 pi, so r^2 = 36 and the radius is 6 m.
