How do you find the measure of an arc with an inscribed triangle?
Space and AstronomyHow do you find the measure of an arc with an inscribed angle? By the inscribed angle theorem, the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc. The measure of the central angle ∠POR of the intercepted arc ⌢PR is 90°. Therefore, m∠PQR=12m∠POR =12(90°) =45°. How do you find the

How can people create bias using graphs and charts?
Space and AstronomyWhat makes a graph biased? A biased graph is a graph together with a class of cirles (simple closed paths), called balanced, such that no theta subgraph contains exactly two balanced circles. How can graphs and charts be misleading? Misleading graphs are sometimes deliberately misleading and sometimes it’s just a case of people not understanding
