Step-by-step explanation:

x² - x - 20 = 0

x² - (5-4) x - 20 = 0 

x² - 5x + 4x -20 = 0

x ( x - 5) + 4 ( x - 5) = 0

(x - 5) (x+ 4) = 0

Either. 

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

Or, 

x + 4 = 0 

x = -4

What is the first step in the construction of a line perpendicular to and passing through an external point M? Assume that the c

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

A.)lPace the compass needle on M and, keeping the compass width the same, draw two arcs that intersect

Step-by-step explanation:

In the construction of a line perpendicular to AB←→ and passing through an external point M the first step must be"Place the compass needle on M and, keeping the compass width the same, draw two arcs that intersect AB←→". After that you can draw arcs from intersection points (keeping the compass width same as before) to the opposite side of M, name it as N than use straightedge to draw line passes through M and n that would be perpendicular line to AB.
