Janelle flies her kite several feet in the air. She then reels the kite in at a constant number of feet per minute. The equation y=-18+ 240 represents this situation, where x is the number of minutes and y is the height of the kite in the air. What does the number -18 in the equation represent? A. The kite is 18 feet above the ground before Janelle starts reeling it in.

B. The kite ascends 18 feet per minute.

C. The kite descends 18 feet per minute.

D. The kite is 18 feet above the ground after Janelle is done reeling it in.

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.

can you make your screen more see able?

then i might be able to .
