GEOMETRY HELP! Celeste is constructing the perpendicular bisector of ST⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ . Which set of instructions explains a correct way

to begin the construction? A) Place the compass point on point S and open the compass so that the pencil point is on the midpoint of the line segment. Draw an arc on each side of the segment. B) Place the compass point on the midpoint of the line segment and open the compass so that the pencil point is on point S. Draw an arc on each side of the segment. C) Place the compass point on point S and open the compass so that the pencil point is on the segment, but closer to point T than to point S. Draw an arc on each side of the segment. D) Place the compass point on point S and open the compass so that the pencil point is on the segment, but closer to point S than to point T. Draw an arc on each side of the segment.

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the line segment ST. we have to give the instruction to construct the perpendicular bisector of line ST.

So to construct the perpendicular bisector of line our first step is to place the compass at one end of line and then adjust the compass more than half of line segment and draw the arc on each side of segment.

After that Keeping the same compass width, draw arcs from other end of line. Place scale where the arcs intersect, and draw the line segment.

So, the correct match is option C )  Place the compass point on point S and open the compass so that the pencil point is on the segment, but closer to point T than to point S. Draw an arc on each side of segment.

Billy is hiking in Colorado. He walks eastward four miles, then turns $60$ degrees northward and walks six miles. How far is he
nikklg [1K]

He is  2√19 miles far way from starting point.

Suppose Billy starts at point A, turns at point B, and ends at point D, as shown below.

If Billy turns 60◦ northward and walks six miles, then we can draw a 30 − 60 − 90 triangle whose hypotenuse is 6 miles

It follows that Billy traveled 6/2 = 3 miles eastward during these 6 miles, and that he traveled 3√3 miles northward during these 6 miles. In total, Billy traveled 4 + 3 = 7 miles  eastward and 3√ 3 miles northward.

By the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance from his starting point is q:

(7)2 + (3√3)2

=√49 + 27

= √76

= 2√19 .

a triangle has side lengths of 13, 15, and 17. determine whether the triangle is right, acute, or obtuse.
Len [333]
Square of longest side = 17^2 =  289

15^2 = 225
13^2 = 169 

total 394      289 is less than this so its acute
