In construction, the precision used to build a structure directly influences the strength of the structure. In the Rocky Mountains, many houses’ roofs are built using trusses, which are strong enough to support the heavy load from snow, but light enough to build in a stockyard and transport to the construction site. Chris works in the stockyard. He has been told he needs to build a series of trusses for a new house using the pattern below. He has also been told the pattern may be inaccurate—so he needs to check and make sure the following features are all parallel, and adjust the pattern before starting. Describe the angles you would need to know to verify that BC, DE, and FG are all parallel to each other, and CD, EF, and GH are also parallel.

What could be an appropriate measure for angle CDE? Be prepared to explain your choice for that angle. Use that measure to find all other angles involved.

Come to the exploration meeting prepared to discuss the following:

What method(s) can Chris use to make sure the segments in the pattern are all parallel and that his new trusses are built precisely and strongly?
1. What method(s) can Chris’s boss use to verify the precision of the trusses Chris builds?
2. If you lived in a mountainous area with a lot of snow, how much leeway would you feel comfortable giving your home’s builders as they design and build your trusses? Why?
3. Identify any alternate interior angles, corresponding angles, and/or alternate exterior angles.

i dont know sorry

step-by-step explanation:

its kind of blurry. can you put a clearer pic?

step-by-step explanation:

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.

"image"

step-by-step explanation:

in most of these problems, the notation is that the point with a "prime" is the image of the point without. that is, b' is the image of b.

here, there is no dilation or reflection. there is simply translation (with no direction shown). which figure you call the "preimage" and which one you call the "image" is up to you. as a matter of convention, the naming is as described above.
