Question

Jalal is planning to construct a climbing wall as part of an obstacle course. He has drawn a sketch that includes a safety support at the base of a triangular structure. For the following pair of statements about Jalal's sketch, determine which statements are true, assuming that the interior angles of the triangle are accurately represented.

Which pair of statements about Jalal's sketch are true?

A. The sketch includes a safety support at the base of the triangular structure.
B. The interior angles of the triangle are correctly represented in the sketch.
C. The sketch depicts a square support at the base of the triangular structure.
D. The sketch accurately represents the exterior angles of the triangular structure.

Answer 1

The sketch includes a safety support at the base of the triangular structure and the interior angles of the triangle are correctly represented.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pair of statements that are true about Jalal's sketch are:

1. A. The sketch includes a safety support at the base of the triangular structure.
2. B. The interior angles of the triangle are correctly represented in the sketch.

In a triangle, the sum of interior angles is always 180 degrees. Therefore, if the sketch accurately represents a triangle, it must show three angles that add up to 180 degrees. Additionally, the sketch includes a safety support at the base of the triangle, which is indicated in the first statement.
