(6^-2)^2 = 1/1296 = 0.0007716049382716 hope this is what you were looking for. the math is right tho for (6^-2)^2 most calculators can do this easy just do 6^-2 then after just do ^2
Explanation:
The line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of the segment joining a point with its reflected image.
___
The segment joining a point with its reflection is as short as possible consistent with the requirement that the reflected point be the same distance from the line that the original is. That means it is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Since the distance from that line is the same on either side, the line of reflection bisects the joining segment.
Is there supposed to be an equation that follows? Can I see the entire question?
15+5•y/2
15+5•4 / 2
15+20 / 2
15+10
=25
D/20=20/15
d=400/15
d=80/3
d=26 2/3 miles
