Answer:
7x -2y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The perpendicular bisector has a slope that is the opposite of the reciprocal of the slope of the segment between the two points. It must go through the midpoint of the segment.
The latter can be found by averaging the coordinates of the end points:
((-5, 6) +(9, 2))/2 = ((-5+9)/2, (6+2)/2) = (2, 4)
The difference in endpoint coordinates is ...
(Δx, Δy) = (9-(-5), 2-6) = (14, -4)
For our purpose, we're only interested in the ratio of these values, so we can divide both by the common factor of 2:
(Δx, Δy) = (7, -2)
A line perpendicular to this segment through the point (h, k) can be written as ...
Δx·x +Δy·y = Δx·h +Δy·k
7x -2y = 7(2) -2(4)
7x -2y = 6 . . . . . . . standard form equation for the perpendicular bisector
Therefore the point P is at 3.46 cm from O and it lies on the angle bisector of ∠XOY
<h3>What is an Angle Bisector ?</h3>The ray that bisects the angle into half is called Angle Bisector.
It is given that ∠XOY = 60 degree
the length of OX = 4.5 cm
OY =5 cm
The point M is on OX such that
OM = 2 MX
so The M is at 3 cm from O
The point P lies in the acute angle such that the distance between point P and OX and OY is always same and at 3 cm from M
According to the angle bisector theorem converse states that if a point is in the interior of an angle and is at equal distance from the sides then it lies on the bisector of that angle.
As it can be seen from the image that a point equidistant from the rays , at 3 cm from M will be at
By Pythagoras Theorem
3² +3² = OP²
OP = 2 = 3.46 cm from O
