Suppose we want to choose 2 objects, without replacement, from the 5 objects pencil, eraser, desk, chair, and lamp. (a)how many ways can this be done, if the order of the choices matters? (b)how many ways can this be done, if the order of the choices does not matter?

a) 20 ways

b) 10 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

When the order of selection/choice matters, we use Permutations to find the number of ways and if the order of selection/choice does not matter, we use Combinations to find the number of ways.

Part a)

We have to chose 2 objects from a group of 5 objects and order of choice matters. This is a problem of permutations, so we have to find 5P2

General formula of permutations of n objects taken r at time is:

Using the value of n=5 and r=2, we get:

Therefore, we can choose 2 objects from a group of 5 given objects if the order of choice matters.

Part b)

Order of choice does not matter in this case, so we will use combinations to find the number of ways of choosing 2 objects from a group of 5 objects which is represented by 5C2.

The general formula of combinations of n objects taken r at a time is:

Using the value of n=5 and r=2, we get:

Therefore, we can choose 2 objects from a group of 5 given objects if the order of choice does not matters.

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.
