Answer:

D. Open the compass so that the distance from the two points of the compass is wider than half the length of \over{AB}.

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct a perpendicular for \over{AB}, we must first take a compass & take the distance of its arms wider than half the length of \over{AB}.

This is done in order to get two intersecting arcs in the top & bottom of \over{AB} so that a perpendicular bisector can be drawn through it.

After two intersecting lines are drawn below & above \over{AB}, draw a line joining these 2 points through their points of intersection. The point where it intersects \over{AB} is the middle-most point of \over{AB} & now a perpendicular bisector of \over{AB} is constructed.

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (1, –5) and (4, 1)?
xxMikexx [17]
You are given two points that could be plotted on a graph (1,-5) and (4,1). The formula for slope is y2-y1/x2 -x1

When plotted into the points it would look like 1-(-5)/4-1= 6/3

6/3=2. So, the slope for these two points is 2.
