What is the most direct use of a compass in geometric constructions?

a) to draw congruent angles

b) to draw arcs of a given size

c) to draw perpendicular lines

d) to draw straight lines

answer: 1, 3 and 5 are correct

step-by-step explanation:

b

step-by-step explanation:

it have 5 sides and 5 identicle angle.the rest does not have the same property as b.

brainliest

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
