How does wind cause weathering? a) wind can not cause the weathering of rocks. b) wind can blow sand and create new landforms. c) wind picks up sand or dry soil and carries it from one place to another. d) blowing sand can wear away a rock's surface and break it into smaller pieces.

The Correct Answer is D.

Explanation:

As the Wind Blows it carry tiny particles of dust & sand and blasts big rocks with the abrasives particles, cutting and shaping the Rocks.Winds carried sediments that get blown into other rocks causing them to chip and break.Blowing Wind can carried away the particles of the rock which cause changes to the other landforms as particles collide with exposed rocks to form interesting shapes like a mushroom.

C. (2x + 16) + (x) = 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the cyclic quadrilateral

One theorem of cyclic quadrilateral states that; opposite angles = 180°

In the attachment, the angle opposite B is D

Where B = x

D = 2x + 16

From the theorem stated above;

B + D = 180°

Substitute the values of B and D in the formula above

x + 2x + 16 = 180

From the list of given options, the correct answer is C
