Answer:

The option which is used to inscribe a square in a circle is option B

B. Construct a perpendicular bisector of the diameter of the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps required to inscribe a square in a circle are;

1) Draw the circle using a compass

2) Draw the diameter of the circle, that passes through the center of the circle with a straight edge label the endpoint of the diameter X and Y

3) Construct the line perpendicular to the diameter of the circle and label the endpoints as A and B

The figure formed by joining the endpoints X, Y, A, and B is the inscribed square of the circle

Therefore, the correct option is to construct a perpendicular bisector of the diameter of the circle.

Describe how you could draw a diagram for a problem about finding the total length for two strings, 15 inches long and 7 inches

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Two strings are 15 inches and 7 inches long.

You could draw a diagram that has two rulers (that are longer than 12 inches).

Draw a piece of string that is exactly 15 inches on one ruler.
Draw another piece of string on the other ruler at exactly 7 inches.

Then you can find the total length of the two strings by adding 15 and 7 inches.
15 + 7 = 22

The total length of both the strings is 22 inches. You can draw a ruler and a piece of string on it at 22 inches.
