Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

Personification, is when a thing, object or animal, receives human attributes. This figurative language does not have relation with the line we are analyzing.  

Symbol or symbolism is when the author uses and object or action to represent something else, common symbolism are like a dove that represents peace or a red rose that is associated with love. King did not establish the radiant stars as a specific symbol of love and brotherhood.  

Simile, is when the author compared two things using the word like or as, an example would be brotherhood like radiant stars, however, King shows the similarity between “the love and brotherhood”, and “the radiant stars” implied in the text, we infer that  “the love and brotherhood” are like “radiant stars” this comparison is knows as Metaphor.

So I am pretty sure the answer is...metaphor. This is because they are relating radiant stars to love..

Is 200/100 and 1/5 equivalent fractions
BaLLatris [955]
No, they are not equivalent fractions. 200/100 is an improper fraction, meaning that the numerator(or the top number) is larger than the denominator(the bottom number). 1/5 is a normal, simplified fraction...200/100 at its simplest is 2/1. Therefore, like I said before, they are not equivalent

Why did the monkey make fun of the squirrel?why do you think thework of the squirrel was as important as the work of the monkey?
egoroff_w [7]
Monkeys were helping Lord Rama build a bridge over the sea.

They were pulling out the rocks and heavy stones from the mountains and carrying them to the sea. A little squirrel was also carrying little pebbles from the mountains and throwing them into the sea. The squirrel came in the way
of a great monkey and he asked the little thing to get out of his way. The squirrel said that he wanted to work hard and help Rama to build the bridge.

Hearing this the great monkey laughed loudly. He made fun of the squirrel and told his comrades that the little thing was building a bridge with pebbles. And that it was the funniest thing he had ever heard.

The work of the squirrel was as important as the monkey's work.

He had less strength but he worked with devotion and made his best efforts to
help in making the bridge.
