Answer:

The pendentive allows the support of the circular base of a dome over a square or polygonal space. In a nutshell, it avoids the dome to fall out.

Explanation:

The pendentives, which are triangular segments of a sphere, taper into points at the bottom and spread at the top to establish the continuous circular or elliptical base necessary for a dome. The pendentives were mainly used in Renaissance and Baroque architecture. The first experiment with the use of pendants was carried out in Roman domed buildings in the early 2nd and 3rd centuries.

Which statement correctly describes the Parthenon in Greece? Missing Metadata Its architectural plan consists of mathematical ra
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Failing to follow StudypoolIts architectural plan consists of mathematical ratios, symmetry, and proportion.

Explanation:

  Parthenon is the name of a temple, built in the 5th century BC in Acropolis, a mountain located in the center of Athens, whose structure, despite the weather, conflicts and pollution, is still preserved. The word Parthenon means "the virgin's room," and the purpose of such a building was to pay tribute to the goddess Athena.

   The Parthenon is considered a work of great purity and perfection. The beautiful proportions of the structure derive from the ratio 9: 4, a mathematical ideal that encapsulates the relations of length to width and the space between the columns, based on their diameters. Built at the time when Athens (the foremost of the Greek polis) was experiencing its most prominent moment, the Parthenon image is often used as the definitive symbol of classical Greek culture, the basis of all modern Western society.
