Answer:

  a, b, e (only)

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle centered at A is all of the points that are distance AB from A.

The circle centered at B is all of the points that are distance AB from B.

The points C and D are points that are distance AB from both A and B.

The line joining those points (C and D) consists entirely of points that are equal distances from A and from B. CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB.

Point M is one of the points on line CD, and is also on segment AB. Because it is on CD, we know it is the same distance from A as from B. That means AM = BM, and M is the midpoint of AB.

__

Points B, C, D are not on the same line, so can form a triangle. As with any triangle, the sum of any two segments is greater than the length of the third. Here, this is expressed as CB + BD > CD.

__

With some work using the Pythagorean theorem, you can show that ...

  CM = AM×√3

Similarly, MD = BM×√3.

Adding these two relations tells us ...

  CM +MD = √3(AM +BM)

  CD = AB×√3 . . . . . AB and CD are not the same length

__

AM and BM are on the same line, so cannot be perpendicular to each other.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

When you are studying compass and straightedge constructions, you would do well to actually perform these constructions using those tools on paper. This gives you a feel for what is going on and helps you remember the steps. A computer screen is no substitute for hands-on.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Angle R is 99 degree

Angle Y=48 degrees

Angle T is 33 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let angle T be x

Angle R will be 3x

Angle Y will be x+15

Total=x+3x+x+15=5x+15

5x+15=180

5x=165

x=165/5=33

Therefore, angle T is 33 degrees, angle Y=15+33=48 degrees and angle R=33*3=99 degrees

NemiM [27]

Answer:

\boxed{2x-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=3x-1\\ g(x)= x+2

(f-g)(x)\\f(x)-g(x)

(3x-1)-(x+2)\\ 3x-1-x-2\\2x-3

The population of a town grows at a rate proportional to the population present at time t. the initial population of 500 increas
vaieri [72.5K]
This is a case of exponential growth.  The appropriate equation, with the given data inserted, is     P(t) = 500 ( 1+0.15)^50

or                                   = 500 (1.15)^50

Evaluate this on your calculator.

Please help me solve question 5.) with the letters a) &amp; b)
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5.(a)

x²+6x-15=0

x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36+4*15}}{2*1}\\x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36+60} }{2}\\x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{96} }{2}\\x=\frac{-6\pm4\sqrt{6} }{2}\\x=-3\pm2\sqrt{6}

(b)

4x²-8x-1=0

x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{64+4*4}}{2*4}\\x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{80}}{8}\\x=\frac{8\pm 4\sqrt{5} }{8}\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{5}}{2}
