Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
- **For question 11**:
    - The quote "That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it" is related to the concept of the consent of the governed. The idea is that the people have the right to change or get rid of a government if it fails to serve their interests. This is a key Enlightenment principle where the authority of the government is based on the consent of the people it governs.
    - Equal rights (1) refer to all people having the same fundamental rights, which is not the main focus of this quote. Religious freedom (2) is about the right to practice religion without persecution, not relevant here. Separation of powers (3) is about dividing government power among different branches (e.g., legislative, executive, judicial), which is also not the subject of this quote.
 - **For question 12**:
    - Brutus (from Document 1) says that rulers are likely to abuse power and that a Bill of Rights is needed to protect individual rights (as bounds should be set to government authority). Hamilton (from Document 2) argues that bills of rights are unnecessary in the proposed constitution as the powers granted to the government are complete and there is no need to declare rights that the government has no power to violate. So, Brutus wants more protection for individual rights from the government, while Hamilton thinks the Constitution already protects those rights.
    - Brutus does not say that democratically elected governments can be trusted (2 - incorrect). Brutus is not against government having power over property (3 - incorrect as he is more focused on rights protection). There is no mention of reuniting with Britain in either document (4 - incorrect).

# Answer:
11. (4) consent of the governed
12. (1) Brutus argues that individual rights need more protection from the government, while Hamilton argues that the Constitution already protects those rights.
