Answer:
A. Yes, he is correct.
Explanation:
George is actually correct. This is true because from the distance coordinates that where given we have:
(2, 4) and (6, 3) where
(2, 4) represent the coordinates of the first point
(6, 3) represent the coordinates of the second point.
Mathematically, the coordinates are written as:
(x₁, y₁) for the first point.
(x₂, y₂) for the second point.
where x₁ = 2
y₁ = 4
x₂ = 6
y₂ = 3
Distance = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²
∴ d = √(6-2)² + (3-4)²
d = √(4)² + (-1)²
d = √16 + 1
d = √17
Therefore, he is correct.
Distance is known to be a numerical measurement which ascertains how far apart objects or points are.
B. hubris: excessive pride or self-confidence.
The answer is C. Diction is word choice and it affects the way a reader experiences the story.
Answer:
D. He is culturally trained to think himself as superior.
Explanation:
The question above is related to "Master Harold...and the Boys," a play written by <em>Harold Fugard.</em> It shows racism in in South Africa during the 1950s.
The play centers on "Hally," a 17-year-old boy who insisted to be called "Master Harold." Sam and Willie are African servants who shows different personalities when it comes to treating the boy.<em> Sam treats Hally as his nephew </em>while <em>Willie treats him as his superior.</em>
The passage reveals that Hally thinks of himself as a superior than the two African boys who were much older than him. <em>This is what he learned from his father.</em> He shouts at them and interrupts whenever they're talking, although this doesn't happen all the time. Nevertheless, he sometimes act as a friend to them. His personality can rift from time to time.
So, this explains the answer.
