From the figure, its clear that the compass drew arcs like below:

With A as centre, and more than half of the length of AB as radius, one arc is drawn.

With the same radius, with B as centre, another arc is drawn.

The points of intersections of the arcs are X and Y.

Clearly, this is the construction of a perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB.

Hence, if we draw a line segment through XY, it will be a perpendicular bisector of AB.

What is the solution of -8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16 <br> y = –4 <br> y = –2 <br> y = 4 <br> y = 6

(-8)/(2y-8)=(5/(y+4))-7y+(8/(y^2-16))
(-4)/(y-4)=(5/(y+4))-7y+(8/(y+4)(y-4))
((-4)(y+4))/((y+4)(y-4))=((5(y-4))/(y+4)(y-4))-(7y(y+4)(y-4))/(y+4)(y-4))+(8/(y+4)(y-4))
(-4(y+4))=(5(y-4))-(7y(y+4)(y-4))+8
-4y-16=5y-20-(7y(y^2-16))+8
-4y-16=5y-20-7y^3+112y+8
-4y-16=117y-7y^3-12
-4=(121-7y^2)(y)
None of these choices would be equal to -4

To divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment.
These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions.
The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.

<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional geometric shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles only.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

<h3>What is a perpendicular bisector?</h3>

A perpendicular bisector can be defined as a type of line that bisects (divides) a line segment exactly into two (2) halves and forms an angle of 90 degrees at the point of intersection.

In this scenario, we can reasonably infer that to divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment. These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions. The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.
