Explanation:

• Question 3: The Compromise of 1877 ended Reconstruction mainly because it agreed to end federal involvement in race relations in the South. Federal troops had been a key part of Reconstruction efforts to protect the rights of newly - freed African Americans. Once the federal government withdrew its active role in race relations in the South, Reconstruction effectively ended.
• Question 4:
• Hayes would remove federal troops from the South and end federal interference with race relations: This was a central part of the compromise. It signaled the end of the federal government's active role in Reconstruction - era policies in the South.
• Hayes had to include at least one Democrat in his cabinet: This was a political concession to the Democrats as part of the deal to resolve the 1876 election dispute.
• Republican Rutherford B. Hayes would be awarded the 20 disputed electoral votes and become the 19th U.S. president: The compromise was mainly about resolving the highly contested 1876 presidential election. Hayes was awarded the presidency in exchange for the concessions mentioned above.
