- A carpenter lays out boards of lengths 8 ft, 8 ft, 4 ft, and 4 ft by placing them end to end. a If these are joined at the ends to form a quadrilateral that has the 8-ft pieces connected in over, what type of quadrilateral is formed? b If these are joined at the ends to form a quadrilateral that has the 4-ft and 8-ft pieces alternating, what type of quadrilateral is formed?arrow_forwardConsider the information in Exercise 2, but suppose you know that the area of the region defined by the intersection of the square and the circle measures 5. What is the area of the entire colored region? 2. The area of the square is 12, and the area of the circle is 30. Does the area of the entire shaded region equal 42? Why or why not?arrow_forwardIn the three-dimensional figure, CAAB and BEAB. Are CAandBE parallel to each other? Compare with Exercise 6.arrow_forward

- Given that ABCD is a square, use intuition to draw a conclusion regarding the lengths of AC- and BD-.arrow_forwarda Does the similarity relationship have a reflexive property for triangles and polygons in general? b Is there a symmetric property for the similarity of triangles and polygons? c Is there a transitive property for the similarity of triangles and polygons?arrow_forwardIn Exercises 39 and 42, refer to the line segments shown. Use the following theorem to construct a triangle similar to the given triangle but with sides that are twice the length of those of the given triangle. Theorem: If the lengths of the three pairs of sides for two triangles are in proportion, then those triangles are similar SSS.arrow_forward
