Max is bisecting a segment. First, he places the compass on one endpoint and opens it to a width larger than half of the segment
. Then, he swings an arc on either side of the segment. What is his next step?
1 answer:
Let's say the original segment is AB. So we have A and B as the endpoints.
If Max placed the non-pencil part of the compass at point A to form the two arcs mentioned, then he'll have to repeat the process with the non-pencil part at point B. He'll get what you see below in the diagram.
The two arcs form points C and D. Segment CD bisects AB. In other words, CD cuts AB in half. This means AE = EB where E is the midpoint of AB.

<em>Hey there!</em>

Well first we need to find the amount of seconds in a day,
24hrs in a day * 60 min in an hour
= 1440 minutes in a day
1440 min • 60 secs in a minute
= 86,400 seconds in a day
So now we do 2*86400 = 172800
172800 mL in a day
172800 * 2
= 345600 mL in 2 days
