Question:
Using only a compass and a straightedge, you are constructing a line perpendicular to AB and passing through a given point, M, on AB. With a compass of set width, you have drawn arcs that intersect AB on each side of M and marked the two intersection points as P and Q.
Options:
-P and set its width to M
-M and set its width beyond P
-P and set its width beyond M
-M and set its width to half the distance between P and M

Answers

Answer 1

The construction goes with P and set its width to M.

The correct option is (A).

What is perpendicular bisector ?

A perpendicular bisector of a line segment is a line segment perpendicular to and passing through the midpoint of  figure.

Now, a line perpendicular to AB and passing through an external point M.

first step :Put the compass needle on M and, keep the compass width the same then draw two arcs that intersect AB.

Second step: After drawing arcs, from the intersecting points named P and Q.

Now, keeping the width of compass same as before and to the opposite side of M draw an arc named it as M'

Third step: Using straightedge draw line passes through M.

The lines which passes through M will be perpendicular to AB.

The above discussed are steps to draw perpendicular bisector of AB.

The diameter of a circle measures 18ft what is the circumference of the circle? Use 3.14 for π and do not round

Answers

Answer:  56.52 feet

=======================================================

Work Shown:

d = diameter = 18 ft

pi = 3.14 approximately

C = circumference

C = pi*d

C = 3.14*18

C = 56.52

The distance around the circle's edge (aka perimeter) is about 56.52 feet

The result is approximate since pi = 3.14 is approximate.

alex has 5 t-shirts in the drawer. 2 are white, and the rest are black. He will pick a t-shirt from the drawer without looking, and then without replacing it, will pick a second t-shirt without looking. What is the probability that he will pick a white t-shirt on his first pick and a black t-shirt on his second pick?

Answers

Answer:

24%

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets consider it.

2 are white, and 3 are black.

2/5 chance of him getting white, and 3/5 chance of him getting black

So he successfully gets white on his first try.

2/5

Then he successfully gets black on his second try

2/5 * 3/5, or 6/25, or 24% of him getting white, then black.

Answers

The Area of Triangle UVW be 16 squared units.

What is Area of Triangle?

The area of a triangle is equal to half the product of its base and height, i.e., A = 1/2 × b × h.

Area of triangle I = [tex]\frac{1}{2} *b*h[/tex]

                            = 0.5  x 4 x 4

                          = 8 units

Area of triangle II= [tex]\frac{1}{2} *b*h[/tex]

                            = 0.5 x 2 x 6

                           = 6 units

Area of triangle III = [tex]\frac{1}{2} *b*h[/tex]

                              = 0.5 x 2 x 6

                              = 6 units

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

                               = 6 x 6

                               = 36units

Area of triangle UVW = Area of rectangle -(Area triangle I + Area of                          

                                      triangle II +Area of triangle III)

                                   = 36 - ( 8 + 6 + 6)

                                   = 36 - 20

                                   = 16 square units

Hence the Area of Triangle UVW = 16 square units.

Subtracting Fractions with an unlike Denominator?

5/8 - 2/32 =

Answers

1) Let us simplify the subtrahend of the expression.

Subtrahend: 2/32

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2}{32} \implies \dfrac{1 \times 2}{16 \times 2} \implies \underlin\dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

2) Determine the LCM of the denominators.

The LCM of the denominators in the subtraction problem (5/8 - 2/32) can be determined by writing the multiples of 16 (Simplified denominator) and 8.

Writing the multiples of the denominators (16 and 8):

Multiples of 16 ⇔ 16, 32, 48, 64, 80...Multiples of 8 ⇔ 8, 16, 24, 32, 40...

Since we can see that 16 is a common multiple and is has the least value in both multiples, 16 is the common multiple of 8 and 16.

3) Solving the subtraction problem.

Multiply such number to the denominators such that the denominators are equivalent to the LCM. Keep in mind that the number we multiply in the denominator must be multiplied to the numerator.

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{5}{8} - \dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{5 \times x}{8 \times x} - \dfrac{1}{16} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ [8x = \text{LCM}][/tex]

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{5 \times 2}{8 \times 2} - \dfrac{1}{16} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ [8 \times x = \text{LCM} \implies 8 \times x = 16 \implies x = 2][/tex]

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{16} - \dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{16} - \dfrac{x}{16x} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ [16x = \text{LCM}][/tex]

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{16} - \dfrac{1 \times 1}{16 \times 1} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ [16 \times x = \text{LCM} \implies 16 \times x = 16 \implies x = 1][/tex]

    [tex]\implies \dfrac{10}{16} - \dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

Finally, let's subtract the fractions as the fractions have like denominators.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{9}{16}[/tex]

Therefore, the simplified fraction is 9/16.

List a specific example with a set and a subset.
Your example needs to be unique and in your own words.

Answers

Some examples:

The set of all animals in the world. A subset could be the group of all dogs. The set of all people in a country. A subset would be the group of people in a small town of that same country.Everything in a person's house (set), vs items located inside the person's kitchen only (subset).The set of parallelograms. A subset is the set of all squares.The set of rational numbers, in which the collection of integers is a subset.

With each example, any item or person in the subset is also found in the original set (but not vice versa). For example, any dog is an animal but not the other way around.

If you were to draw a venn diagram, then the larger circle is the set of all animals, while the subset of all dogs is a smaller circle drawn completely inside the larger one.

Those examples listed above is of course not the complete list of set & subset combos. Feel free to get creative and think of others.

Height of the cone = Volume of a cone ÷ 1/3(πr²)

Where:

π = 22/7r = radius = diameter / 2 = 30 / 2 = 15 unitsh = height
