Answer:

"After sailing more than 27,000 nautical miles" is the dependent clause

Explanation:

The dependent clause is the part of a sentence that establishes a dependent relationship with the main clause, also called an independent clause. This is because the dependent clause does not have the ability to expose a message alone, as it does not have the full meaning, per se. This clause needs a complement so that it can be understood and that complement is the independent clause. As you can see, the "After sailing more than 27,000 nautical miles" clause is unable to give meaning, so the clause is dependent.

Identify the sentence using the active voice. A. The truck driver was given a ticket by the police officer. B. The truck driver
Serhud [2]

Answer:

C. The police officer gave a ticket to the truck driver.

Explanation:

The subject police is doing the verb - "gave" to the truck driver. And the use of "by" towards the end of the sentence is not valid in active voice. The subject-verb relationship changes in the passive voice. So, while the other three options (A, B and D) all put the subject "police officer" at the end of the sentence, that means it is already in the passive voice, added with the use of "by" in these sentences. So, the correct sentence that is in the active voice is option C.
