Gavin is measuring the distance around some pine trees in the local state park. He is trying to find the biggest pine tree in the forest. He finds several trees with circumferences greater than 1.8 meters. What is the minimum diameter of one of those trees?

0.58 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If he find several trees with circumferences greater than 1.8 meters.

C>1.8

Circumference of a circle =

Therefore:

Therefore

Therefore, the minimum diameter of one of the trees is 0.58 meters correct to 2 decimal places.

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.
