You would measure the length of a segment with a straightedge because it is free from curves and can help measure a segment because it is straight.

Find the distance between the points 3,7 and 15, 12 on the coordinate plane?
lana [24]
\text{Distance } = \sqrt{ (x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

\sqrt{ \left( 15 -  3\right)^2 +  \left( 12 -  7\right)^2}\\\\\sqrt{\left( 12\right)^2  + \left( 5\right)^2}\\\\\sqrt{    144  +   25 }\\\\\\ \sqrt{   169 } = \boxed{\bf{ 13}}

What are the remaining angle measures if the figure is to be a parallelogram?
goldfiish [28.3K]

The correct answer is  

m∠B ==101°,

m∠C =79°,

m∠D=101°

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As we know that, it is a parallelogram opposite angels are congruent
  • Therefore,  m∠A = m∠C and m∠B =m∠B
  • As we know that, If side a=79 then side c must also be equal to 79
  • When we consider all the angles and add them it must be equal to 360°
  • When we add 79+79 = 158°, which mean a=c= 158°
  • By subtracting all the sides of parallelogram which is 360- 158= 202°
  • If we divide it by 2 then we will get the value of the other side of the angle which is  b and d.
  • Dividing 202 by 2
  • \frac{202}{2} = 101°
  • Therefore, the value of b=d=101°
  • A Parallelogram is a flat shape with an opposite sides parallel and they are equal in length.
  • A parallelogram has four sides, and the opposite sides are parallel and they don't intersect.

Find the exact circumference of a circle with diameter equal to 8 ft
lina2011 [118]
The formula for circumference is C= 2(pi)(r)^2. Because diameter is double the radius, and the diameter is 8 ft, the radius is 4 ft. So, plug that into the equation, and you get: C=2(pi)(4)^2. The answer is 32 pi ft. If the question asks for the exact answer, keep the pi as it is, but if it says to round, multiply 32 by pi and round.
