An extremely large sink hole has opened up in a field just outside of the city limits. it is difficult to measure across the sink hole without falling in so you use congruent triangles. you have one piece of rope that is 50 ft. long and another that is 70 ft. long. you pick a point "a" on one side of the sink hole and "b" on the other side. you tie a rope to each spot and pull the rope out diagonally back away from the sink hole so that the two ropes meet at point "c" . then you recreate the same triangle by using the distance from line "ac" and line "bc" and creating new segments ce and cd . the distance of line "de" is 52.2 ft. what type of triangles have you created? 
b. how do you know the triangles are congruent? 
c. what is the measure of angle acb ? 
d. how far across is the sink hole? 
e. what is the perimeter of triangle abc ?

Astudy was interested in determining if eating milk chocolate lowered someone's cholesterol levels.ten people's cholesterol was measured. then, each of these individuals were told to eat 100g of milk chocolate every day and to eat as they normally did. after two weeks, their cholesterol levels were measured again. is there evidence to support that their cholesterol levels went down? how should we write the alternative hypothesis? (mud = the population mean difference= before - after)a. ha: mud = 0b. ha: mud > 0c. ha: mud < 0d. ha: mud does not equal 0

Astudent is determining the influence of different types of food on the growth rate of spiders. she feeds one group of spiders two caterpillars twice a week. the other group received similarly-sized beetles twice a week. she records the amount of time required for individuals to reach sexual maturity. her hypothesis is that the spiders feeding on caterpillars will have a faster growth rate because caterpillars have a higher protein content compared to beetles. in this experiment, what is the dependent variable? spiders assigned to different feeding groups. time required to reach sexual maturity number of prey items fed twice a week. growth rates of each group.
