Sample Response: 1 3/ 4 is equal to 1.75. I would plot 1.5 and 1.75 between 1 and 2, but 1.75 would be closer to 2. Since 1.75 is further to the right, it is greater than 1.5.

Answer:

1 3/4 is greater than 1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To make a line that measures 1 3/4, make 2 regular lines.

2. Divide one of the lines into 4 equal sections and erase the one section and leaving you with 1 3/4.

To make the 1.5:

1. Make a line and make another line but that is half of the length of the previous line.

we can divide the composite shape into on quadrilateral and triangle as shown in the diagram. since the line that joins the two shape is parallel to the base AB, the angle DEC is 85°.The angle CEA is 180°- angle DEC = 180-85=95. Angle BCE is sum of angle CEA, ABC and EAB subtracted from360°= 360°-(95+95+85)=85°. Angle DCE is 120°- ECB=35°. So, angle CDE = 180°-(35°+85°)= 60°. For reference see the diagram.
