Problem 12

A triangle is named \(\triangle A B C\). Can it also be named \(\triangle A C B\) ? Can it be named \(\triangle B A C ?\)

Problem 15

Does the relation "is complementary to" for angles have a reflexive property (consider one angle)? a symmetric property (consider two angles)? a transitive property (consider three angles)?

Problem 23

Use a compass to draw a circle. Draw a radius, a line segment that connects the center to a point on the circle. Measure the length of the radius. Draw other radii and find their lengths. How do the lengths of the radii compane?

Problem 24

Use a compass to draw a circle of radius 1 inch. Draw a chord, a line segment that joins two points on the circle. Draw other chords and measure their lengths. What is the largest possible length of a chord in this circle?

Problem 26

Two angles are complementary. One angle is \(12^{\circ}\) larger than the other. Using two variables \(x\) and \(y,\) find the size of each angle by solving a system of equations.

Problem 27

Two angles are supplementary. One angle is \(24^{\circ}\) more than twice the other. Using two variables \(x\) and \(y,\) find the measure of each angle.

Problem 33

When the Distributive Property is written in its symmetric form, it reads \(a \cdot b+a \cdot c=a(b+c) .\) Use this form to rewrite \(5 x+5 y\).

Problem 34

Use intuition to state a conclusion. In the figure, point \(M\) is called the midpoint of line segment \(A B\). Conclusion?

Problem 46

Use deduction to state a conclusion, if possible. If Tabby is meowing, then she is hungry. Tabby is hungry. Conclusion?
