The following sentence shows one of the steps to construct a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle. "Make a point A anywhere in

the circumference for the first vertex. Place the compass on point A and draw an arc to create the next vertex of the hexagon." Which of the following statements should be added to make this step correct? The width of the compass needs to be set to equal the diameter of the circle. The width of the compass needs to be set to equal the radius of the circle. The width of the compass needs to be set to equal half the radius of the circle.

I believe it's half the radius of the circle because the side would equal the radius and the compass is in the middle of the side, right?

Answer: half the radius of the circle

Step-by-step explanation: this statement says it all ;)

"Make a point A anywhere in the circumference for the first vertex. Place the compass on point A and draw an arc to create the next vertex of the hexagon."

Of the total number of spectators at a circus show, 1/4 are men. 2/5 of the remaining number of spectators are women. There are
ch4aika [34]

Answer: There are 198 children at the circus show.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the total number of spectators at the circus show and "c" the number of children at the circus show.

Knowing that \frac{1}{4} of the spectators are men, we can find the remaining:

x-\frac{1}{4}x=\frac{3}{4}x

Since \frac{2}{5} of the remaining number of spectaros are women and there are a total of 132 women, we can write the following equation:

(\frac{2}{5})(\frac{3}{4}x)=132

Solving for "x", we get:

x=(132)(\frac{20}{6})\\\\x=440

Therefore, we get that "c" is:

 c=440-\frac{1}{4}(440)-132\\\\c=198

Find the equation of the line through point (5,1) and perpendicular to 5x−y=−3. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for fractions (e.
IRINA_888 [86]
Y = -1/5x + 2

A line perpendicular to another line has an opposite reciprocal slope. What opposite means is that you flip the sign (from - to + or from + to -) and reciprocal means that you flip the numerator and denominator (so if line A is perpendicular to line B and line As slope is -3, line Bs slope would be 1/3).

First find the slope of 5x - y = -3
Add y to both sides
5x = y - 3
Add 3 to both sides
y = 5x + 3

So the slope of the line is 5. That means the slope of of the perpendicular line is -1/5.

Plug the slope of the perpendicular line and the point (5, 1) into point slope form to solve the equation

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = -1/5(x - 5)
y - 1 = -1/5x + 1
y = -1/5x + 2

An angle cannot be the complement of one angle and the supplement of another angle at the same time. is this true or false?
soldi70 [24.7K]

An angle cannot be the complement of one angle and the supplement of another angle at the same time. Then the given statement is false.

<h3>What is an angle?</h3>

The angle is the distance between the intersecting lines or surfaces. The angle is also expressed in degrees. The angle is 360 degrees for one complete spin.

Supplementary angle - Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their sum is 180 degrees.

Complementary angle - Two angles are said to be complementary angles if their sum is 90 degrees.

An angle cannot be the complement of one angle and the supplement of another angle at the same time.

Then the given statement is false.

More about the angled link is given below.
