Anybody able to help me with geometry, please comment.

28 squared minus 39x minus 80 equals 0

Rudik [331]

Answer:

x = 704/39 ( <----Fraction)

Step-by-step explanation:

28 squared minus 39x minus 80 equals 0

784-39x-80=0 evaluate the power

704-39x=0 Subtract the numbers

-39x=-704 move the constant to the right hand side and change it's sign

Divide on both side to get x = 704/39

The figure shows a construction completed by hand.

Tresset [83]

Based on the construction, we can logically deduce that: A. yes; the compass was kept at the same width to create the arcs for points C and D.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

In Geometry, a line segment can be measured by using the following measuring instruments:

A scale (ruler)

A divider

A compass

In Geometry, an arc can be defined as a trajectory that is generally formed when the distance from a given point has a fixed numerical value.

Based on the construction with arcs created above and below the line segment from points A, we can infer and logically deduce that it is true that the compass was kept at the same width to create the arcs for points C and D.

In conclusion, yes, the construction demonstrated how to bisect a line segment correctly by hand.

Complete Question:

The construction has a given segment AB. Arcs have been created above and below the segment from points A that are equidistant from point A. The compass was kept at the same distance, placed on point B, and two additional arcs were created above and below the segment that intersect with the first arcs created. The intersection of the arcs above the segment created point C. The intersection of the arcs below the segment created point D. A line was drawn from point C to D through the segment.

Does the construction demonstrate how to bisect a segment correctly by hand?

A. Yes; the compass was kept at the same width to create the arcs for points C and D.

B. Yes; a straightedge was used to create segment CD.

C. No; the compass was not kept at the same width to create the arcs for points C and D.

D. No; a straightedge was used to create segment CD.
