Place the center of the compass at A and extend the compass to point B 

<span>draw the circle with center A and radius AB </span>

<span>now move the compass center to point B and draw the circle with center B and radius AB </span>

<span>the two circles will intersect at two points ( you don't really need to draw the entire circles, just enough so that the arcs you draw will intersect in two points) </span>

<span>use a straight edge to connect those two points of intersection, and the line you draw will be the bisector of the given segment AB </span>

<span>( the common radius of the circles you draw doesn't actually have to equal AB, it just has to be greater than one half AB in order for the circles to intersect each other. But the proof that this construction works is a little more elegant if the radii are AB)</span>

PLEASE HELP DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THIS
Otrada [13]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles are right angles here. You know one is 54 so the other unknown side in that quadrant has to be 90 - 54.

As angle B is going to be the same as the angle that you just located in that quadrant, the answer is 36

Algebra Find the values for x and y in parallelogram ABCD. AE= x+5, EC=y, DE=2x+3, EB=y+2
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The values of x and y are ⇒ x = 4 and y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram

1. Each two opposite sides are equal and parallel

2. Each two opposite angles are equal

3. Its two diagonals bisect each other

In parallelogram ABCD

∵ Its diagonal AC and BD intersect each other at point E

∵ AC and DE bisect each other at E

∴ E is the mid-point of AC

∴ AE = EC

∴ E is the mid-point of BD

∴ DE = EB

∵ AE = x + 5

∵ EC = y

∵ AE = EC

∴ x + 5 = y ⇒ (1)

∵ DE = 2x + 3

∵ EB = y + 2

∵ DE = EB

∴ 2x + 3 = y + 2

- Subtract 2 from both sides

∴ 2x + 1 = y ⇒ (2)

Substitute y in equation (2) by equation (1)

∵ 2x + 1 = x + 5

- Subtract x from both sides

∴ x + 1 = 5

- Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ x = 4

Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ x + 5 = y

∵ x = 4

∴ 4 + 5 = y

∴ y = 9

The values of x and y are ⇒ x = 4 and y = 9

Barry runs at an average rate of 8 mi/hr. He walks at an average rate of 3 mi/hr. If x represents the time spent running and y r
Viktor [21]
<h3>Answer:   8x+3y = 16</h3>

============================

Work Shown:

x = number of hours spent running

8x = distance he runs (since he runs at 8 mph)

y = number of hours spent walking

3y = distance he walks (he walks at a speed of 3 mph)

8x+3y = total distance = 16 miles

8x+3y = 16

This equation is in standard form Ax+By = C

--------

Extra Info

Solving for y will get

8x+3y = 16

3y = -8x+16

y = (-8x+16)/3

y = (-8x)/3+16/3

y = (-8/3)x+16/3

This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b

m = -8/3 is the slope

b = 16/3 is the y intercept

What is the value of 2x3 + 4x2 - 3x2 - 6x when x = 3?
never [62]

Answer:

-10

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation is 2 x 3+4 x 2-3 x 2- 6(x)=  .  Than the equation would turn into  2 x 3+4 x 2-3 x 2- 6(3) which equals -10.
