Q: Information: - The Farrimond friction hitch is a quick release adjustable friction hitch for use on lines under tension . It is useful when the length of a line will need to be periodically adjusted in order to maintain or adjust tension whilst remaining quick and easy to untie ; such as when hanging the ridge line for a Basha ( tarpaulin ) . It can be used in very effective conjunction with the Siberian hitch for this purpose . - A noose is a loop at the end of a rope in which the knot tightens under load and can be loosened without. The knot can be used to secure a rope to a post or pole, but only where the end is in a position that the loop can be passed over. - A rope is a group of yarns, plies, or strands that are twisted or braided together into a larger and stronger form. Ropes have tensile strength and so can be used for dragging and lifting, but are too flexible to provide compressive strength. As a result, they cannot be used for pushing or similar compressive applications. Rope is thicker and stronger than similarly constructed cord, line, string, and twine. Fiber rope is made from fiber, whereas wire rope is made from wire. - The Siberian hitch (or Evenk knot) is a hitch knot used to attach a rope to an object. It is a type of slipped figure-eight noose. The hitch is known for having a tying method suitable even while wearing heavy gloves or mittens in cold climates. As a slipped knot it can be released simply by pulling the working end of the rope. After reading the paragraphs above, we are interested in knowing the entity with which 'farrimond friction hitch' exhibits the relationship of 'instance of'. Find the answer from the choices below. Choices: - group - hitch knot - knot - line - loop - method - position - result - string
A: hitch knot

Q: Information: - Cassius Dio or Dio Cassius was a Roman statesman and historian of Greek origin. He published 80 volumes of history on Ancient Rome, beginning with the arrival of Aeneas in Italy. The volumes documented the subsequent founding of Rome (753 BC), the formation of the Republic (509 BC), and the creation of the Empire (31 BC), up until 229 AD. Written in Ancient Greek over 22 years, Dio's work covers approximately 1,000 years of history. Many of his 80 books have survived intact, or as fragments, providing modern scholars with a detailed perspective on Roman history. - Aelius Herodianus ( Greek : ) or Herodian ( fl . 2nd century CE ) was one of the most celebrated grammarians of Greco - Roman antiquity . He is usually known as Herodian except when there is a danger of confusion with the historian also named Herodian . He was the son of Apollonius Dyscolus and was born in Alexandria . From there he seems to have moved to Rome , where he gained the favour of the emperor Marcus Aurelius , to whom he dedicated a work on prosody . - Elagabalus , also known as Heliogabalus (203 March 11, 222), was Roman emperor from 218 to 222. A member of the Severan dynasty, he was Syrian, the second son of Julia Soaemias and Sextus Varius Marcellus. In his early youth he served as a priest of the god Elagabal in the hometown of his mother's family, Emesa. As a private citizen, he was probably named Sextus Varius Avitus Bassianus. Upon becoming emperor he took the name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. He was called Elagabalus only after his death. - Herodian or Herodianus of Syria, sometimes referred to as "Herodian of Antioch" (c. 170 c. 240), was a minor Roman civil servant who wrote a colourful history in Greek titled "History of the Empire from the Death of Marcus" ( ) in eight books covering the years 180 to 238. His work is not entirely reliable although his relatively unbiased account of Elagabalus is more useful than that of Cassius Dio. He was a Greek (perhaps from Antioch) who appears to have lived for a considerable period of time in Rome, but possibly without holding any public office. From his extant work, we gather that he was still living at an advanced age during the reign of Gordianus III, who ascended the throne in 238. Beyond this, nothing is known of his life. After reading the paragraphs above, we are interested in knowing the entity with which 'aelius herodianus' exhibits the relationship of 'date of birth'. Find the answer from the choices below. Choices: - 11 - 170 - 180 - 203 - 218 - 22 - 240 - 31 - 80
A: 180
