The values of AB, BC, CD and AD are the distance between their endpoints.
<em>The lengths cannot be determined.</em>
I've attached the required diagram.
The length of the segments cannot be calculated; so, I will give the steps to calculate the lengths.
- <em>Draw a straight through each endpoint</em>
- <em>Measure the length of straight using a ruler.</em>
- <em>Record each length</em>
<u>Approximate to the nearest eighth of an inch.</u>
To approximate to the nearest eighth of an inch means that, you approximate to the nearest 0.125
Assume the length of AB is:
<u>The eighths of an inch are: </u>
0.125, 0.250, 0.375, 0.500, 0.625, 0.750, 0.875, 1.000
<em>0.51 is between 0.500 and 0.625, but it is closer to 0.500.</em>
So, the approximated value would be
Assume BC is:
<em>0.200 is between 0.125 and 0.250, but it is closer to 0.125.</em>
So, the approximated value would be
