In order to construct the pyramids, the egyptians needed to be proficient in engineering and a) astronomy b) mathematics c) chemistry d) anatomy

In order to construct the pyramids, the Egyptians needed to be proficient in engineering and  Mathematics so they knew where to place everything and a pyramid is a mathematical shape so you'd need to know math to know how to construct it.

The Egyptians employed the equivalent of similar triangles to measure distances.

For instance, the sked of a pyramid is stated as the number of palms in the horizontal corresponding to a rise of one cubit .

I would say B. Mathematics so they knew where to place everything and a pyramid is a mathematical shape so you'd need to know math to know how to construct it

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)

i believe the answer is: returns on investments, no wages

people who belong in upper class society would most likely get there by obtaining multiple source of income, which a certain percentage of ownership for businesses. since most of them are job creator, they would most likely get their money from profit, not wages.
