I believe that there is a need for students to understand and be able to construct geometric figures using a compass and straightedge.

The compass and straightedge can be used anywhere. The compass and straight edge have been around for lots of years. They are a valuable tool for students in math and in real world applications. The compass and straightedge are portable and handy to use any given time. That is why there is a need for students to understand and be able to construct geometric figures using a compass and straight edge.

The compass and straight edge have been used to accurately create geometric figures for thousands of years. This shows that they are accurate and useful to us. Using technology is less reliable for many reasons. Technology can break, or glitch and shut down, making you lose all your work. You cannot draw on physical objects with an iPad like you could with a pencil or pen. Having a physical copy of things makes things easier to keep track of. Having a blueprint would be better than having a drawing on your phone. You can get another blueprint, but if your phone breaks and that drawing isn't saved, it's gone.

These are only a few reasons why I believe that there is a need for students to understand and be able to construct geometric figures using a compass and straightedge.

Three reasons why the other method is not better is because to use drawing program would mean you would need some sort of technology and electricity to use it and some places, like third world countries, do not have access to that, so most probably you would have to resort to paper. Also, drawing programs are based off the skills needed to create geometric figures with a straightedge and compass. And lastly, what if we had no more technology anymore? Then how would we use a drawing program? Drawing programs are only reliable when electricity is located.

SO THE ANSWER IS A hope it help :)

A seamstress needs to cut 15-inch pieces of ribbon from a roll of ribbon that is 9 feet in length. What is the greatest number o
Eduardwww [97]
Before attempting to solve any problem, make sure that the units are consistent. There are units of feet and inches. To be consistent,let's convert ft to in knowing that there are 12 inches in 1 ft.

9 ft*12 in/1 ft = 108 inches

Now, it also mentions that there are 5 of these. So, the total length would be:
Total Length = 108*5 = 540 inches

Finally, divide the total length to 15 inches.

Number of portions = 540/15 = <em>36 pieces of 15-inch ribbons</em>

A ramp is to be built beside the steps to the campus library. Find the angle of elevation of the 23​-foot ​ramp, to the nearest
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

the angle of elevation is 12.56°

Step-by-step explanation:

the height of the ramp represents the opposite side and the length of the ramp the hypotenuse

we see that it has (angle, hypotenuse, opposite)

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse

a: adjacent

o: opposite

h: hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

we choose the one with opposite and hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

sin α = 5ft / 23ft

sin α = 5/23

α = sin^-1 ( 5/23)

α = 12.56°

the angle of elevation is 12.56°
