What is the factor being tested in an experiment?
Hypothesis or postulate .
Where does the formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon come from?
Euclid parallel postulate can be interpreted as being equivalent to the sum of the angles of a [plane] triangle being 180 degrees. It is quite easy to prove that a polygon with n sides can be divided into n triangles. Putting the two together, you get the formula for the sum of the interior angles of a polygon.
What the forgetful professor said about the letter he forgot to mail?
postulate!... this is a "play on word" mathematical riddle... a postulate is really a geometric term, but it is being used as "post you late."
Any inscribed in a semicircle is a?
All triangles inscribed in a semicircle with one side of the triangle being the diameter of the semicircle are right triangles.
What solid figures can you make with four isosceles triangles and one square?
A pyramid. The square being the base and the triangles the 'sides' - each having a side connected to a side of the square - the other sides connected to 'neighbor-triangles'.
Which postulate identifies these triangles as being similar?
AA

Is it possible for two triangles to have two pairs of sides that are proportional without the triangles being similar?
Yes. You can even have two triangles with two pairs of sides that are the SAME measure without the triangles being similar.

Can postulate become a canon in episcopal church before being ordained to the priesthood?

What you the difference between a postulate and a theorem?
A postulate is something that is accepted as true without proof. A theorem, on the other hand, is something that has been proven and is now being accepted as true.
Do all triangles have right angles?
No. Only right triangles do, and not all triangles can be right triangles. Equilateral triangles, for example, are always 60°-60°-60°. Isosceles and scalene triangles can be right triangles; all isosceles triangles have the additional useful property of being able to be split into two right triangles.
What is usually being tested in an experiment?
Hypothesis or postulate .
Any inscribed in a semicircle is a?
All triangles inscribed in a semicircle with one side of the triangle being the diameter of the semicircle are right triangles.
True are false are all equilateral triangles are isosceles?
False. Equilateral triangles are equilateral. All isosceles triangles have two of the sides the same, with the hypotenuse being longer than the other two.
