Answer:

You get an perpendicular line through given point.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this method of drawing perpendicular line through given point,

you will draw an arc from given point R, so as to cut given line at A and B.

now ,length RA will be equal to length RB (radius of circle)

now, with length RA you will place compass at A and B to cut the arcs at point P (let) on other side of given line.Now, join PA and PB.  

The closed RAPB makes a rhombus and diagonal bisect perpendicularly in rhombus.

so you get an perpendicular line through given point.

Answer:

The compass point must be placed on points A and B because you need to make arcs which would allow you to make the perpendicular line through the given line. The construction would be different if the compass point were placed at random points on the original line because then the line would not be lined up correctly in the middle and it will not be correct, hence why you need to put the compass on A and B.

The graph shows the location of point P and point R. Point R is on the y-axis and has the same y-coordinate as point P. Point Q
Mumz [18]

Answer:

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinate of P = (n,3)

R is on y-axis & the y-coordinate of P & R are equal. So coordinate of R = (3,0)

Coordinate of Q = (n,-2)

Using distance formula,

Distance between P & Q =

\sqrt{ {( n  -  n}) ^{2} +  {( 3-  ( - 2)  })^{2}   }

=  >  \sqrt{ {(3 + 2)}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{ {5}^{2} }  = 5

Distance between P & R =

\sqrt{ {(n - 0)}^{2} +  {(3 - 3)}^{2}  }

=  >  \sqrt{ {n}^{2} }  = n

But in question it is given that distance between P & Q is equal to the distance between P & R. So,

n = 5

Find the distance between the points (<br> -<br> 10,12) and (15,12).
Nitella [24]
The distance formula is:

d= \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}

We are given two points in the form (x,y), so plug in the values to the distance formula:

d= \sqrt{(-10-15)^2-(12-12)^2}

Next we can simplify. We know that 12-12 is 0, so we can drop it from the equation, as it will not affect our answer. Also, we know that -10-15 is -25:

d= \sqrt{(-25)^2}

The square and square root cancel each other out leaving us with 25.

The answer is 25.
