Question

Which of the following can be used to prove that point P is equidistant from the

endpoints of LM?

First, state that PL PM by the definition of a perpendicular
O bisector. Second, state that point P is equidistant from the endpoints
of LM because of the definition of congruence.
congruence.

First, state that PL PM because corresponding parts of
congruent triangles are congruent. Second, state that point P is
equidistant from the endpoints of LM because of the definition of
congruence.

First, prove that ALNP AMNP by the side-side-side theorem.
Second, prove that point P is equidistant from the endpoints of LM
by showing that PL PM because corresponding parts of
congruent triangles are congruent.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Maya is researching ant colonies for her biology class. Her research question is “What elements make up all ant colonies?”

Which of the following sources would likely contain the MOST relevant information on Maya’s topic? Why?

A.

an online article about the life cycle of an ant; ant life cycles are related to what happens in colonies

B.

a book chapter called “The Ant Queen in African Colonies”; a book will always publish the most accurate information

C.

a magazine article titled “What Does an Ant Nest Look Like?”; what an ant nest looks like will likely relate to all ant colonies

D.

a scientist’s blog post about how ants recognize one another; a scientist is a reliable and trustworthy source of information
