Classifying Triangles

Classifying Triangles Triangles can be classified on the basis of two aspects, sides and angles. Triangles on the basis of sides are divided into three types: Equilateral triangle (in which all the sides are equal), Isosceles triangle (in which any two sides are equal), Scalene triangle (none of the sides are equal). Similarly, triangles on the basis of angles can be divided into three types: Acute triangle (each angle less than 90), obtuse triangle (one angle greater than 90), and right triangle (one angle measures 90 ). Example 1: If the perimeter of the triangle ABC is 21m and length of two sides of the triangle is 7m each respectively, then triangle ABC is classified as which triangle? Let the length of the third side be = x A Perimeter of a triangle = Sum of all the sides of the triangle Then, Perimeter = x + 7 + 7 = 21 Therefore, x + 14 = 21 == x = 21 14 = 7 B C This implies the length of the third side is also = 7m Since all the three sides of the triangle are equal in measure, hence triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle. Example 2: In triangle PQR, measure of angle P and measure of angle R is 50 and 40 respectively. Triangle PQR is classified as which triangle? Let the measure of angle Q be = x Sum of all the angles in a triangle = 180 Then, angle P + angle Q + angle R = 180 Therefore, 50 + x + 40 = 180 == x + 90= 180 == x = 90 Q R This implies that angle Q = 90 Since one of the angles in triangle PQR = 90, hence triangle PQR is a right triangle.

3 Important Study Skills for College Students

3 Important Study Skills for College Students Suzy S. Ready for college? Make sure your study skills are on track with these tips from Honolulu tutor Jinan B... Doing well in college is often a balancing act: you are learning so many new things, being exposed to new ideas and people, making friends, and having fun. Having good study skills will ensure that you both succeed in your classes and also make the most of your study time, so you also have time to experience the many other facets of life that college offers. As a professor at a large university, here are some tips I offer my students to enhance their study skills for college. 1. Confusion is good. That’s right, I said it. College is a time of great exploration, and learning requires making errors and experimenting. The key is to use any confusion you encounter as a jumping off point for digging deeper into the material. Welcome confusion as a chance to understand something more profoundly instead of becoming frustrated and giving up. College is an opportunity to develop a true sense of curiosity in learning, rather than simply memorizing material. You can also use confusion as a stimulus to engage and get to know your professor. As a professor, I am always appreciative when students bring me challenging questions with the desire to further their knowledge and understanding. It is also very clear to me that students are deeply invested in learning the material if they visit me during office hours to discuss any questions they have about the material. 2. Make use of all the resources you have. Colleges and universities offer an incredible network of support to students. This includes librarians, study skills centers, teaching assistants, and other students. Consider these individuals part of your path of learning, and you will reap great benefits from their advice, knowledge, and experiences. If you’re struggling with an assignment, reach out to another student or the teaching assistant in the class to troubleshoot. If you’re studying for an exam and don’t know how to approach the huge amount of material, sign up for a session at the study skills center. Or, perhaps you’re writing a paper and need help finding rich source material; check in with the librarian who may have excellent ideas for how to locate good materials. You can also find a private tutor to help you. 3. Study for the midterm and final from day one of the class. By learning the material in an organized, methodical way you will be in very good shape when exam time rolls around. Most college students wait until the last minute and then try to cram a few days before exams, but if you put in a few minutes a day of focused learning, you will be much better able to learn large amounts of material. When you are reading the assigned material, make it a point to write down the key ideas. This is one of the best study skills for college students to establish, as your notes will serve not only as a study guide later, but also as a way to concretize your understanding by writing the ideas in your own words. This makes you an active learner rather than simply passively reading the material. If you’re having trouble finishing the reading assigned for all of your classes, consider taking a speed reading class, which may be offered at your study skills center. Remember, college is a unique experience, so make the most of it by studying efficiently so you can both succeed and have time for extracurricular activities as well. With these tips, you will be poised to learn, succeed, and enjoy the journey! Jinan B. tutors in Life Science in Honolulu, HI.

Using Would and Used to in English Video and Exercise

Using Would and Used to in English Video and Exercise English language learners are often unsure about using would and used to to express past times, so they rarely use them.  If you are an English language learner and you want your speech and writing to sound more natural, learning how to use would and used to for past times will help a lot.Here is an example of a past story by an English language learner:When I was a teenager I went to heavy metal concerts every weekend. I picked up my friends and we took a taxi to the stadium. We saw a different band every weekend. We went to eat after the concert and we arrived home early the next morning around 3 or 4 am. The next day we always slept until 1 in the afternoon. Then we ate Sunday dinner with our family. That was a good time in my life.Now here is that same paragraph but told like a native English language speaker:When I was a teenager I used to go to heavy metal concerts every weekend. I would pick up my friends and wed take a taxi to the stadium. Wed see a different band every week end. Normally wed go eat after the concert. Wed usually get home early the next morning around 3 or 4 AM. The next day wed sleep until 1 in the afternoon and then wed eat Sunday dinner with our family. That was a good time in my life.Notice that the story is introduced by  used to and then the subsequent actions are using would.There are times that would is incorrect in the past:When I was a child I would hate onions. NO. We must only use would in the past for ACTIVE verbs. Confused? Watch the video below and do the exercises.Rewrite the exercises using would or used to. Write your answers in comments, and well respond.1. When I was young I went to my grandmothers farm every summer.2. When I was first married I made breakfast for my husband every morning.3. My husband didnt like eggs for many years.4. She worked at IBM for many years before retiring.5. You ate here a lot during your first year at university. Olga 1. When I was young I would go to my grandmother’s farm every summ er2. When I was first married I would make breakfast for my husband every morning.3. My husband didn’t like eggs for many years.4. She used to work at IBM for many years before retiring.5. You used to eat here a lot during your first year at university. LOIEnglish Excellent work Olga. Number 3, you can use use to in the past with didnt. The correct usage is: My husband didnt use to like eggs. Your sentence is correct as well. We can not use would for past actions. Thanks for answering! Ariana Cella Ribeiro 1. When I was young I would go to my grandmother’s farm every summer.2. When I was first married I would make breakfast for my husband every morning.3. My husband used to didn’t like eggs for many years. ????4. She used to work at IBM for many years before retiring.5. You used to eat here a lot during your first year at university. LOIEnglish ArianaNumber 3 is incorrect. In a negative sentence we use: didnt use to. So the correction is: My husband didnt use to like eggs. simicpetar 1. When I was young I would go to my grandmothers farm every summer. 2. When I was first married I would make breakfast for my husband every morning. 3. My husband used to hate eggs for many years. 4. She used to work at IBM for many years before retiring. 5. You used to eat here a lot during your first year at university.Lets put passive verbs aside for a moment.Did I get it correctly: if we have some kind of introduction in a sentence, e.g. When I was young / When you lived there / When I was your age, then we should use would. And if the verb goes unintroduced â€" then we use used to, as an actual introduction to a sentence (and a whole story afterwards, if there is one).So its:I used to work here., but When I was your age kid, I would work here. LOIEnglish You answered all the questions correctly. We can leave the adverbial time phrases off when we use would or used to. i.g. My husband used to hate eggs. You dont need for many years.In regards to the active or nonac tive verbs. You CANNOT use would with nonactive verbs. You CANNOT say: When I was young I would live with my mother. This is incorrect. You can say: I used to live with my mother.NowYour examplewith WORK as the verb is very tricky. I had to do some research and talk to several of our teachers. Our teacher Dianna had the best explanation of why you CANNOT say: When I was your age kid, I would work here.The verb work in this context is a permanent state rather than an activity. I used to work hereis possible as a past state now discontinued. When I was at university, I would work all night to finish my assignments. This sentence is possible because it is clearly an activity. I would work there every weekend is possible as it is a temporary activity/habit..a part time job.There are a few verbs live and work that can be a permanent state or a temporary action/activity/habit. So you must consider the context in which they are used.I hope this helps! simicpetar It does, definitely! Thank s for the response. And HUGE thanks for the research, I believe we all got your points ?? However, one rule still remains unclear to me, so lets try with a different verb (and e.g. our 5th sentence):Is it You used to eat here a lot during your first year at university., but During your first year at university, you would often eat here. ?We have to use used to in the 1st example, and we have to use would in the 2nd one, am I correct? Elena 1. When I was young I would go to my grandmother’s farm every summer.2. When I was first married I used to do breakfast for my husband every morning.3. My husband used not to like eggs for many years.4. She used to work at IBM for many years before retiring.5. You used to eat here a lot during your first year at university. LOIEnglish Elena,Good work. You have a couple errors. The first is in Number 2: I used to MAKE eggs for my husband. You can have a look at our post about do/make: http://www.skypeenglishclasses.com/skype-english-blog/do-or -make-the-rules-and-a-lot-of-exceptions/Number 3: The correction is: My husband didnt use to like eggs. Notice that I left off the for many years because used to implies that it is a long period of time. Also take note that when we use didnt we drop the D on the end.Number 4: You an drop for many years She used to work at IBM before retiring.Hope this helps! Thanks for answering! Ilka 1. When I was young I used to go to my grandmothers farma every summer.2. When I was first married I used to make breakfas for my husband every morning.3. My husband didnt use to like eggs for many years.4. She used to worke at IBM for many years before retiring5. You used to eat here a lot during your fist year at university. LOIEnglish Ilkavery good. The only mistake I see is that when we use used to we can drop the time references because it becomes redundant. For example: My husband didnt use to like eggs. (dropped for many years) Also: She used to work at IBM before retiring. (dropped for many y ears) Ilka Thank you so much. Can I say the same sentences this way?1. When I was young I would go to my grandmothers farma every summer.2. When I was first married I would make breakfast for my husband every morning.4. She would work at IBM for many years before retiring.

10 Gifts to Get Your Coworker

10 Gifts to Get Your Coworker pexels.com The age-old dilemma of what to get your coworkers for their birthdays is one that most people are familiar with. The weird limbo of knowing your coworker well enough to get them a gift, but not well enough to know what kind of gift they would enjoy most is not a fun position to be in. Most people are also not ready to drop large sums of money for their workplace Secret Santa either. If you are having trouble finding that perfectly generic coworker gift, you have come to the right place. Here are 10 examples of gifts suitable for coworkers at any level of acquaintanceship: 1. Office supply holders This desk accessory holder is a good gift because it’s actually useful! The best coworker gifts are gifts that help them stay organized at work. 2. Ironic coffee mugs Nothing like coffee mugs that remind your coworker how tired they actually are! 3. These punny animal crackers Everyone loves a good pun! If you add in a pun to your gift, your coworker might not even notice that you spent less than $5 on it. 4. E-book subscription This is a really useful gift and can be fairly cheap as well! Buy your coworker a one-month subscription to an e-book supplier for an actually useful gift! 5. News subscription Similarly, sign your coworker up for a one-month subscription to their favorite news outlet. 6. Smartphone/tablet screen cleaner This is a super useful gift for a coworker. Tablet and phone screens are constantly smudged and dirty; this cleaner is a super useful tool to keeping your face grease off your phone. 7. Chocolate Any kind of chocolate is a great gift. If you get a large amount of chocolate, there’s a good change that your coworker will share in the future. 8.

Jargon stamp Keep your coworker hip and in-the-times with this office-themed jargon stamp. pexels.com Before buying a gift, evaluate whether you should in the first place. Workplace gift giving can be awkward and unnecessary if it’s a large office where not everyone is necessarily close. Before you drop part of your weekly paycheck on a coworker you have talked to twice, ask around to see if your other coworkers are getting something. Oftentimes, only people who are close friends in the office will get gifts for one another, so it might not always be necessary to get your coworker a gift.  If it’s your boss, however, a little something might be nice to show that you care about them. If you do need to get your coworker a gift, but you aren’t sure what to get them, start your search with this list!
