Which of the following best explains whether ? 1/2 or 1 is the better estimate of 36/40 ? A. 20/40=1/2 and 40/40 = 1. Since 36 is less than 40, 36/40 is closer to 1/2 than it is to 1.

B. 20/40 = 1/2 and 40/40 = 1. Since 36 is closer to 20 than it is to 40, 36/40 is closer to 1/2 than it is to 1.

C. 20/40 = 1/2 and 40/40 = 1. Since 36 is exactly halfway between 20 and 40, 36/40 is as close to 1/2 as it is to 1.

D. 20/40 = 1/2 and 40/40 = 1. Since 36 is closer to 40 than it is to 20, 36/40 is closer to 1 than it is to 1/2

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

20/40 = 1/2

40/40 = 1

Difference between 20 and 36 = 16

Difference between 36 and 40 = 4

Therefore, the difference between 36/40 and 40/40 is smaller.

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.

i need points
