tan(theta) = opposite side/adjacent side
So tan (theta) = 1000/4000= 1/4
so theta= arc tan(1/4)= 0.245 radians= 0.245*180/pi = 14degree
So option a is correct.

How does the word equidistant relate to the term perpendicular bisector?
disa [49]
A perpendicular bisector cuts a line segment directly in half. a property of perpendicular bisectors is that any point on the line of the bisector will be equidistant (the same distance from) both end points.

 Ex, If point X was 5 ft away from one endpoint, it would be 5 feet away from the other as well.
