Answer:

"Not all eagles are bald eagles or congruent segments do not have equal length; true"

Explanantion:

Given the statement;

Q: All eagles are bald eagles.

S: Congruent segments have equal length.

Then;

~Q: Not all eagles are bald eagles. -------- True

~S: Congruent segments do not have equal length. ------False

The compound statement is ~Qv~S.

the "v" is a or joint, so if one of the statement is true then the compound statement will be true.

Since statement ~S is true, the the compound statement is true.

Therefore the correct answer is;

"Not all eagles are bald eagles or congruent segments do not have equal length; true"
