The figure below shows a partially-completed set of steps to construct a rhombus PQRS:

Two equal sides of a rhombus PQRS are drawn. PQ makes an acute angle with the horizontal side QR. An arc drawn from Q intersects QR at M and QP at L. An arc of the same measure and the same orientation as arc LM is drawn from point P to cut QP at N.

The next step is to construct side PS of the figure so that side PS is parallel and congruent to side QR. The chart below shows the steps each of the four students took to draw side PS:

Student 1 Fix the compass at M, and adjust its width to point L. Without changing the width of the compass, move the compass to N and draw a small arc on the big arc. Label the point of intersection of the two arcs as T. Draw a line segment from P that passes through T. Adjust the width of the compass to QR, and draw an arc from point P to intersect line PT at S.
Student 2 Fix the compass at M, and draw an arc that intersects side QP at point T. Without changing the width of the compass, move the compass to R and draw an arc. Adjust the width of the compass to QR, and draw an arc from point P. Draw a line segment from R that passes through T and intersects the second arc at S.
Student 3 Fix the compass at L, and adjust its width to point M. Without changing the width of the compass, move the compass to R and draw an arc that intersects QR at point T. Draw a line segment from R that passes through T and intersects the arc at S.
Student 4 Fix the compass at L, and adjust its width to point P. Without changing the width of the compass, move the compass to R and draw an arc that intersects QR at point T. Draw a line segment from R that passes through T and intersects the arc at S.

Martha has a deck of cards. she has lost some of the cards, and now the deck only contains nine spades, eleven diamonds, eight clubs, and twelve hearts. martha predicts that whenever she draws a card from the deck without looking, she will draw a club one-fifth of the time. which activity would best allow martha to test her prediction? a. randomly draw a card from the box and see if it is a club. b. randomly draw a card. then, continue to draw another card until all eight clubs are drawn. c. randomly draw and replace a card 120 times. then, observe how close to 30 times a club is drawn. d. randomly draw and replace a card 100 times. then, observe how close to 20 times a club is drawn.
