Geography

Answer:

A. P and S waves

Explanation:

P waves are compression waves while S waves are shear waves. P-waves are usually faster than S-waves (about 60% faster). P and S waves are called body waves because they move through the interior of the earth.

When an earthquake occurs, P and S waves are produced. A seismic recording station an be used to record the arrival of these two waves. Since the P wave is faster than the S wave, hence the P wave would first arrive at the station. The earthquake epicenter can be determined by the difference in time of arrival between the P and S wave.

Many villages in the Sahel have been settled ?
hram777 [196]
Assuming that you're referring to the villages in the Sahel during the era of Sahelian Kingdoms, a lot of them settled on the edge of Sahara, on its southern border to be precise. The southern border of Sahara is filled with forests and have enough resource to sustain their living. But they cant go any further because they were hindred by the Ashanthis and Yoruba

Answer for first picture:

#1 = 43 degrees #2= 38 degrees

#3= 27 degrees #4= 45 degrees

Explanation for first picture:

All the angles are right angles. This means they all will equal 90 degrees! so if you take 90 degrees and subtract the one known angle you will have your answer! :)

Answer for 2nd picture:

#1 = X= 70 Y= 110

#2 = X= 102 Z= 102

#3 = X= 83 Y= 194

#4 = Y= 37 Z= 143

Explanation for second picture:

When you have angles like these the total will equal 360 degrees! look at the first pic, it shows 110 degrees, you also know that the angle across of it is equal to it. so together it equals 220 now subtract 360 - 220. you get 140. since you have two angles to figure out, you divide 140 into two. 140 / 2 = 70 degrees! you do the same steps for the rest of the problems!
