Answer:

oor Thomas Cromwell. He has rarely been given a good press – even in the triumphant island story as told by the champions of Protestant England, in which the pope’s deluded followers were repeatedly put in their place so the British empire could flourish and spread Christian civilisation far and wide. In that telling, Henry VIII receives all the credit for leading Tudor England in walking tall – and he had the glamour that his most effective minister notoriously lacked.

The various surviving copies of Hans Holbein’s portrait of Cromwell – showing him as pudgy and watchful, expensively but plainly dressed – are distinctly unflattering to this busy royal minister, to the extent that I wonder if vengeful Catholics in Queen Mary Tudor’s reign destroyed any pictures that presented him in a kinder light.

Cromwell has long been unpopular among many Roman Catholics. Curiously, he has also been derided by many Anglicans who have turned away from their Protestant Reformation heritage and waxed sentimental about England’s monastic ruins – Cromwell’s central role in the destructive Dissolution can’t be denied. In his days, many politicians and notables hated him out of sheer snobbery: how, they must have felt, could talent and efficiency possibly be allowed to snatch power from good breeding and ancient pedigree? So, from several different points of view, Cromwell ends up being seen as a thug in a doublet, doing the bidding of Henry VIII, the Tudor Stalin.

Answer:

1 of 5) D, 2 of 5) B, 3 of 5) D, 4 of 5) A, 5 of 5) D

Explanation:

1 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of two rectangles. That is:

$A = (4\,cm)\cdot (3\,cm) + (6\,cm)\cdot (2\,cm)$

$A = 12\,cm^{2}+12\,cm^{2}$

$A = 24\,cm^{2}$

The area of the shaded region is 24 square centimeters. (Answer: D)

2 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of the rectangle and the triangle. That is:

$A = (8\,cm)\cdot (5\,cm)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (5\,cm)\cdot (5\,cm)$

$A = 40\,cm^{2} + 12.5\,cm^{2}$

$A = 52.5\,cm^{2}$

The area of the shaded region is 52.5 square centimeters. (Answer: B)

3 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of the rectangle and the triangle. That is:

$A = (10\,cm)\cdot (4\,cm)+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot (7\,cm)\cdot (6\,cm)$

$A = 40\,cm^{2}+21\,cm^{2}$

$A = 61\,cm^{2}$

The area of the shaded region is 61 square centimeters. (Answer: D)

4 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of four triangles and two rectangles. That is:

$A = 4\cdot \frac{1}{2}\cdot (1\,m)\cdot (2\,m) + (8\,m)\cdot (4\,m)+(3\m)\cdot (1\,m)$

$A = 4\,m^{2}+32\,m^{2}+3\,m^{2}$

$A = 39\,m^{2}$

The area of the shaded region is 39 square meters. (Answers: A)

5 of 5) The composite area is the sum of the areas of the three semicircles and the square. That is:

$A =3\cdot \frac{\pi}{8}\cdot (10\,cm)^{2}+ (10\,cm)^{2}$

$A = 117.810\,cm^{2}+100\,cm^{2}$

$A = 217.810\,cm^{2}$

The area of the shaded region is 217.810 square centimeters. (Answer: D)

Answer:

The First Continental Congress was a meeting of delegates from 12 of the 13 British colonies that became the United States. It met from September 5 to October 26, 1774, at Carpenters' Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, after the British Navy instituted a blockade of Boston Harbor and Parliament passed the punitive Intolerable Acts in response to the December 1773 Boston Tea Party.
