|dw:1467998993146:dw| I didn't draw very well pretend you print this out on a piece of paper what will the line you fold your paper about look like so that the top shape lays perfectly over the other shape

myininaya (myininaya):

will the line be vertical, horizontal, or diagonal ?

OpenStudy (allen27):

diagonal

myininaya (myininaya):

there is only one diagonal line listed in your choices

OpenStudy (allen27):

oh

OpenStudy (allen27):

i dont understand

myininaya (myininaya):

do you know which of the lines given in your choices is horizontal?

OpenStudy (allen27):

i dont even know what horizontal means

myininaya (myininaya):

|dw:1467999332342:dw| |dw:1467999344268:dw|

OpenStudy (allen27):

oh i now now

myininaya (myininaya):

|dw:1467999364888:dw||dw:1467999376078:dw| a constant means a number (a number that doesn't change) for example -3, 0, 5.4 and so on never change like examples of horizontal lines are: y=3 y=-1 y=0 y=sqrt(3) and so on... examples of vertical lines are: x=-1 x=5 x=0 and so on...

OpenStudy (allen27):

ok

myininaya (myininaya):

so which of the choices do you think is a diagonal line?

myininaya (myininaya):

use process of elimination

OpenStudy (allen27):

arent diagnols always in a shape

OpenStudy (allen27):

like a diamiter

myininaya (myininaya):

there are some examples of diagonal lines |dw:1467999577350:dw| |dw:1467999589876:dw|

OpenStudy (allen27):

qp is is a diagonal

OpenStudy (allen27):

pt

OpenStudy (allen27):

qr and ts

myininaya (myininaya):

ok... those are line segments I'm trying to get you to think about the line of reflection you told me earlier that you said you could fold your paper about a diagonal line so that top shape lies perfectly over the other shape this diagonal line is the line of reflection

myininaya (myininaya):

there is only one choice that that represents a diagonal line

OpenStudy (allen27):

i am realy confused myininaya

myininaya (myininaya):

in your choices

myininaya (myininaya):

can you tell me where you are lost? do you still think that folding your paper about a diagonal line will get you from that one shape to other shape?

OpenStudy (allen27):

can u give me the answer i was lost the moment were you started asking my about diagonals

myininaya (myininaya):

ok do you know you can fold your paper all sorts of ways? here is your paper: |dw:1467999972196:dw|

OpenStudy (allen27):

yes i know that

myininaya (myininaya):

|dw:1467999989510:dw|

OpenStudy (allen27):

ok

myininaya (myininaya):

|dw:1468000011000:dw|
