When using a perpendicular director, why must the compass opening be greater than 1/2 the length of the segment

1 answer:

8 0

Because you want to draw 2 arcs ( by putting the point of the compass on each end of the line ) that intersect . If the opening was 1/2 or less than 1/2 of the length they would not intersect.

Answer:

x=7

7-4=3

7+2=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABE and Triangle CDB are similar

4*3=12

ABE is 3 times bigger than CDB

3(x-4)=x+2

3x-12=x+2

2x-12=2

2x=14

x=7

7-4=3

7+2=9

15% of 40 = 6 so I’m guessing it would be 6
