Compare the two statements below and decide if the phrase: "In a plane," needs to be included in order to make a true statement. 1. In a plane, if a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other line.

versus

2. If a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other line.

answer choices:

A) It does not need to be included. By leaving it out of the statement, the reader considers three dimensions not just the xy-plane. The two parallel lines would determine a plane. However, the transversal could intersect only one of the lines. This would allow the proof to use the Corresponding Angles Theorem.

B) It does not need to be included. By leaving it out of the statement, the reader considers three dimensions not just the xy-plane. The two parallel lines would determine a plane. However, the transversal could intersect only one of the lines. This would allow the proof to use the Angle Bisector Theorem.

C) It needs to be included as it forces the reader to consider only two dimensions, like the xy-plane. The two parallel lines would determine the plane and the transversal would intersect both lines. This would allow the proof to use the Corresponding Angles Theorem.

D) It needs to be included as it forces the reader to consider only two dimensions, like the xy-plane. The two parallel lines would determine the plane and the transversal would intersect both lines. This would allow the proof to use the Angle Bisector Theorem.

An office supply company conducted a survey before marketing a new paper shredder designed for home use. in the survey, 80 % of the people who tried the shredder were satisfied with it. because of this high satisfaction rate, the company decided to market the new shredder. assume that 80 % of all people are satisfied with this shredder. during a certain month, 100 customers bought this shredder. find the probability that of these 100 customers, the number who are satisfied is 69 or fewer.
