When constructing inscribed polygons and perpendicular lines, how are the steps similar?
a. four right angles are created.
b. a protractor and ruler are used to take accurate measurements.
c. intersecting arcs are created and connected.
d. there are no similarities.

which step is included in the construction of inscribed polygons?

a. measure the diameter of the circle with a straightedge.
b. connect two arcs together with a compass.
c. measure the length of each side with a straightedge.
d. create a circle from a given center with a compass.

Answer : 1. (C) is the right answer "Intersecting arcs are created and connected".

2. (D) is the right answer "Create a circle from a given center with a compass".

For example to create inscribed square .

Step1) Create a circle from a given center O with a compass.

Step2) Draw a diagonal passing through O and marked as AB on the circle.

Step3) Put compass at A then draw arcs above and below O. Similarly draw arcs from B intersecting arc formed by A.

Step4) Create a line across both the point of intersection by using a straightedge and intersects the circle at C above and t D below center O.

Step5) Join all the four points on the circle which would become the vertices of the square ACBD.

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
