Answer;
C) The second arc should be centered at C.
Explanation;
Assuming the goal is to construct a line parallel to AB that passes through given point C.
-Draw a line through C and across AB at an angle creating D.
- With the compass width about half of DC, and center D, draw the first arc to cross both lines.
-Using the same compass width , draw the second arc with center C.
-Then set the compass width to the lower arc (the first arc)
- Move the compass to the second arc. Mark off an arc to make point E
-Draw a straight line through C and E
Thus the line CE will be parallel to line AB
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
take 70 and subtract the amount left, which is $22.56 divide that by 7.52 and you get your answer of 3
Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's do this Divide both sides.
equals to,
y+2>2
Cancel out equal terms.
y>0.
Answer:
PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...
LP + PR = LR
This corresponds to the last choice.
_____
<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>
On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...
PL + LR = PR
The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...
LP + LR = PR
and by the commutative property, ...
LR + LP = PR.
Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.
