30 PTS!! Can someone PLEASE rephrase this? The compass and straightedge is more important in constructing geometric structures than other drawing tools such as rulers and protractors. Because steps taken with a compass and straightedge cannot be seen at first glance and this situation become a problem for students.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This study investigated three mathematics teachers' construction process of geometric structures using compass and straightedge. The teacher-student-tool interaction was analysed. The study consists of the use of a compass and straightedge by the teachers, the ideas of the teachers about their use, and the observations regarding the learning process during the construction of the geometric structures. A semi-structured interview was conducted with the teachers about the importance of the use of a compass and straightedge to construct geometric structures. It was found that teachers taught compass and straightedge constructions in a rote manner where learning is little more than steps in a process. The study concludes with some suggestions for the use of a compass and straightedge in mathematics classes based on the research results. SUMMARY Purpose and significance: For more than 2,000 years, the way in which geometric structures could be constructed with the help of compasses and straightedges has caught the attention of mathematicians. Nowadays, mathematics curriculums place an emphasis on the use of the compass and straightedge. The compass and straightedge is more important in constructing geometric structures than other drawing tools such as rulers and protractors. Because steps taken with a compass and straightedge cannot be seen at first glance and this situation become a problem for students. However, 'doing compass and straightedge construction early in the course helps students to understand properties of figures'

Find the area of the shaded region

A. 12 ft^2
B. 36 ft^2
C. 40.5 ft^2
D. 18 ft^2

Answers

Answer:

The shaded area is 18 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the total trapezoid

A = bh

A = 1/2 ( b1+b2) *h

   = 1/2 ( 6+12) *6

   = 1/2 ( 18)*6

   =54

Now find the area of the triangle

A = 1/2 bh

   = 1/2 ( 12) * 6

   = 36

Subtract the triangle from the trapezoid

54-36

18

The shaded area is 18 ft^2

Answer:

D. 18 sq.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make it simple and short.

Area of a triangle is 1/2 b h

b = 6

h = 6

Area = 1/2 * 6 * 6

Area = 18 sq.ft

Jayde is wrapping a cube shape present that is 14 inches tall. How much wrapping paper will be needed to wrap the whole present?

Answers

Answer:

1176in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

find the surface area of the cube

(14*14)6=1176 inches cubed

14*14 is finding the area of one side and then we multiply it by six because that's how many congruent sides there are

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{1,176 in^{2} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The cube is 14 inches tall

All of the sides in a cube are the same, which means:

Length = 14 inches

Width = 14 inches

Height = 14 inches

There are 6 sides in a cube. Each side has a length and a width.

We can use the following formula to find the surface area (SA) of the cube, or how much wrapping paper Jayde will use.

SA = # of Sides(Length(Width))

Plug in known values

SA = 6((14)(14))

The 14s represent the length and width while the 6 represents the number of sides in the cube.

Solve/Simplify

SA = 6(196)

SA = 1,176 inches²

Jayde will need to use 1,176 in² of wrapping paper to wrap the whole present.

Note: it is the length of the side opposite to the θ, and the length of the side adjacent to θ.

Thus, in the right triangle given, ∆GHI,

What is the measure of angle B?​

Answers

Answer:

b = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle are 180

80+40+b = 180

Combine like terms

120+b =180

Subtract 120 from each side

b = 180-120

b = 60

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that all triangles have an interior angle sum of 180. In other words:

[tex]\angle A+\angle B +\angle C = 180[/tex]

Plug in the angle values we know:

[tex](80)+(40)+\angle B = 180\\120+\angle B =180\\\angle B = 60\textdegree[/tex]

Answer:

the probability is P=0.045

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given mean of computer chips as 1 centimeter and a standard deviation of 0.1 centimeter

We were given

σ=0.1

n=16

We calculate:

Z=(0.95-1)/0.1 √16

Z=-0.125

Using the standard z- tables. to get the probability we have

P(X<0.95)=P(z<-0.115)=0.045

Answer:

x = - 2, y = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

13x - 6y = 22 → (1)

x = y + 6 → (2)

Substitute x = y + 6 into (1)

13(y + 6) - 6y = 22 ← distribute and simplify left side

13y + 78 - 6y = 22

7y + 78 = 22 ( subtract 78 from both sides )

7y = - 56 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = - 8

Substitute y = - 8 into (2) and evaluate for x

x = - 8 + 6 = - 2

Thus x = - 2, y = - 8

The slope of a straight line is the tangent of the angle formed by it with the positive x axis as the reference.

The negative slope indicates the rate of decrease while the positive shows the rate of increase.

The given points are (-9, -3) and (7,-7).

The general expression to find the slope for two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given as,

m = (y₁ - y₂)/(x₁ - x₂)

Plug (x₁, y₁) = (-9, -3) and (x₂, y₂) = (7, -7) to get,

⇒ m = (-3 + 7)/(-9 - 7)

⇒ -1/4

Answers

Answer:

When the plane makes its turn to fly southeast, it makes a 45º angle at point a, making angle abc also equal to 45º.  

Line ab is the 2 miles southeast the plane flies.

Line ac = line cb

sine (45º) = opposite / hypotenuse = cb / 2

.70711 = cb / 2

cb = 1.41422  miles = line ac

Line cs = 3 - 1.41422 = 1.58578

Line x^2 = cs^2 + cb^2

Line x^2 = 2.5146982084  + 2.0000182084

Line x^2 = 4.5147

a circular hall has a hemispherical roof. the greatest height is equal to the internal diameter .if the capacity of the hall is 43510 m^3 ,then the area of the floor is​

Answers

This building is basically a cylinder with a hemisphere on top. Let d be the diameter of the hemispherical roof. This is also the height of the entire building as the greatest height is this value (which is located at the center of the building)

The hemisphere itself is r = d/2 meters high, which is the radius of the roof. The cylinder portion's height must be d - r = d - d/2 = 2d/2 - d/2 = d/2 = r meters. So basically the cylinder and the hemisphere both have the same height of r.

At the same time, the cylinder and hemisphere also have the same radius r, or else the roof wouldn't fit on the cylinder.

------------------------------

Volume of cylinder = pi*r^2*h = pi*r^2*r = pi*r^3

Note how I replaced h with r and simplified.

Also,

Volume of hemisphere = (1/2)*(volume of sphere)

Volume of hemisphere = (1/2)*( (4/3)*pi*r^3 )

Volume of hemisphere = (2/3)*pi*r^3

------------------------------

Add the two volume expressions

total volume = (volume of cylinder) + (volume of hemisphere)

total volume = (pi*r^3) + (  (2/3)*pi*r^3 )

total volume = (3/3)pi*r^3 + (2/3)pi*r^3

total volume = (5/3)pi*r^3

------------------------------

Set this equal to 43510 and solve for r

(5/3)pi*r^3 = 43510

pi*r^3 = (3/5)*43510

pi*r^3 = 26106

r^3 = 26106/pi

r = (26106/pi)^(1/3)

r = 20.2549023450428

The building has a radius of approximately 20.2549023450428 meters

------------------------------

We can now compute the area of the circular floor

area = pi*r^2

area = pi*(20.2549023450428)^2

area = 1,288.87316044698

Answer: approximately 1288.87316044698 square meters

70%, What is the probability that the team will win the second game given that
they have already won the first game?

Answers

Answer: 54.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The probability that they  will win both games is 38%.

i.e. P( both games will win) =0.38

The probability that they will win just the first game is  70%.

P(first game will win) = 0.70

To find : P(second game will win| first game will win)

Using formula: [tex]P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(\text{both A and B})}{P(A)}[/tex]

So, P(second game will win| first game will win) = [tex]\dfrac{\text{ P( both games will win)}}{\text{P(first game will win)}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{0.38}{0.70}\approx0.5429=54.29\%[/tex]
