Describe at least two similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpen

dicular through a point off a line.

Two similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpendicular through a point off a line are;

  • 1. Arcs are drawn to cross the given line twice on either side relative to the point
  • 2. The perpendicular line is drawn using a straight edge by connecting the small arcs formed using the arcs from step 1, to the point on the line or off the line

Description:

1. One of the first steps is to place the compass on the point and from

point, draw arcs to intersect or cross the given line at two points.

2. The compass is placed at each of the intersection point in step 1 and

(opened a little wider when constructing from a point on the line) arcs are

drawn on one (the other side of the point off the line) side of the line with

the same opening (radius) of the compass to intersect each other.

3. From the point of intersection of the arcs in step 2, a line is drawn with a

straight edge passing through the given point.

A piece of fabric is 2 yards long Marcus puts one patch at each end of the fabric and at each quarter foot mark how many patches
klio [65]
Conversion.
1 yard = 3 feet

So the fabric has 2 yards. Then the size of the patch is 1/4 foot. 
So the number of patches that Marcus used is..
= 3 * 2
= 6 / (1/4)
= 24 patches.

So a total of 24 patches Marcus used.

204, 200,196,... find the 31st term
rewona [7]

Answer:

31st term = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

204, 200,196,...

Find:

31st term

Computation:

204, 200,196,...

First term a = 204

Difference d = a3 - a2

Difference d = 196 - 200

Difference d = -4

An = a + (n-1)d

A31 = 204 + (31-1)(-4)

A31 = 204 - 120

A31 = 84

Write two ratios equivalent to 24 : 9.
notsponge [240]

Answer:

8:3

16:6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's check if 9 and 24 have any common factor. If they do have any common ones, we must find the GCF (greatest common factor).

Factors of 9: 1, 3, 9

Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

The common factors both of the numbers share and 1 and 3. To find the GCF, simply compare one of the factors to the other.

1 < 3

Now that we know the GCF, we can divide the two numbers in the ratio 24 : 9 by it (3).

24:9

24/3:9/3

<u>8:3</u>

Now that our ratio is simplified, it's going to be much easier to find more ratios that are equivalent. <u>8:3</u> is already one equivalent ratio, but if we multiply each number in the ratio by any other number, we can get a new equivalent ratio. Let's multiply each number in the ratio by 2:

<u>8:3</u>

8 ⋅ 2:3 ⋅ 2

<u>16:6</u>

<u></u>

So, another equivalent ratio to 24:9 (and <u>8:3</u>) is <u>16:6</u>.
