What kind of shape is a crescent?

In art and symbolism, a crescent is generally the shape produced when a circular disk has a segment of another circle removed from its edge, so that what remains is a shape enclosed by two circular arcs of different diameters which intersect at two points.


Is it possible to build a triangle with side lengths 7 9 12?

Yes, since 7+9 > 12. If you want to construct one, you need a compass (the kind that draws circles, not the one that tells North) and a ruler.Measure off 12 units (centimeters, inches, etc.) Pick a point a and label it A, and draw a circle with 12 unit radius, using point A as the center.Next, set the compass to 7 units, and using the same point A as the center, draw a 7 unit radius circle. Next, pick a point on the edge of the 12 unit circle, and label it B. Set the compass to 9 units, and draw a circle centered at B. Draw a line segment from A to B (this is the 12 unit side). Find where the 9 unit circle intersects the 7 unit circle (there will be 2 points of intersection). Label one of these two points as C. Draw a line segment from B to C; this is the 9 unit side. Draw a line segment from point A to C (this is the 7 unit side). On the related link, there is a JPEG of what this would look like.

If a straight line intersects with a curve how many points do they have in common?

It depends what kind of curve you're talking about. if it's a circle, and the line is tangent to the circle, then one. If it's a circle, and the line is not tangent to the circle, then two. But if it's a goofy shaped curve then it could be any number. But the most likely answer to your question is 2.


Can you show me a line segment?

A line segment starts at a point, goes straight and ends at another. Um, google images a picture. Otherwise, it would look kind like this I guess: ._____________. But those dots would be on the line, attached at the ends.

What do you project on the world to measure?

The maths and geometry are quite involved.Imagine the earth as a sphere and a circle imposed on the surface with the earths centre as its centre (known as a giant circle)Now imagine you can manipulate the circle from its centre until it passes through the two points you need to measure between.Then calculate the angle between the points and the centreThen calculate the length of the arc(the giant circle has a radius of 6371000 metres)measuring distance on earth then is complex, though there will probablybe some kind of calculator on the web.
