salantis [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Heres more about russia.Russia, the world's largest country, comprises much of northern Eurasia, and stretches over a vast expanse of Europe and Northern Asia.[1] Due to its size, Russia displays both monotony and diversity. As with its topography, its climates, vegetation, and soils span vast distances.[2] From north to south the East European Plain is clad sequentially in tundra, coniferous forest (taiga), mixed and broadleaf forests, grassland (steppe), and semi-desert (fringing the Caspian Sea) as the changes in vegetation reflect the changes in climate. Siberia supports a similar sequence but is predominantly taiga. The country contains forty UNESCO biosphere reserves.[3]

Find the area of a triangle whose base is 2√3 in. and height is 3√3 in. Type a numerical answer in the space provided. Can you s
creativ13 [48]
Answer: 9 (in square units)


WORKINGS

Base of Triangle, b = 2√3

Height of Triangle, h = 3√3

Formula for Area of Triangle, A = (b * h)/2


Area of the Triangle = (2√3 * 3√3)/2

= (2 * √3 * 3 * √3)/2


Collect like terms in the bracket

= (2 * 3 * √3 * √3)/2

= [(2 * 3) * (√3 * √3)]/2

= (6 * 3)/2

= 18/2

= 9 (In square units)

Which statements describe Wegener’s ideas that became known as the theory of continental drift? Check all that apply.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Options (1), (2) and (3)

Explanation:

Alfred Wegener was the person who first invented the continental drift theory.  He observed that the continents move from one place to another with respect to a fixed point. He put forward many pieces of evidence but he was unable to explain the main mechanism that is responsible for these motion of continents.

The pieces of evidence that were given by Alfred Wegener supporting the continental drift theory are-

(a) The continents move slowly and continuously from one place to another and the edges of these continents perfectly match with the other.

(b) Similar fossil assemblages were found in currently separated continents.

(c) Similar rock types are also found and suggested that the continents were once all together forming a huge landmass which is known as the Pangaea.

Later this theory was modified into a more simple and universally accepted theory which is commonly known as the Plate tectonic theory.

Hence, the correct answers are options (1), (2) and (3).
