Answer: The answer is 24

Step-by-step explanation: One easy way to find least common multiples is to take the large number and multiply it by increasing numbers (1,2,3,etc.) until a number is found that is also divisible by the smaller number.

In this case, we can multiple 12 by increasing numbers until we find a number that is also divisible by 8.

12

⋅

1

=

12

This is not divisible by 8.

12

⋅

2

=

24

This is divisible by 8.

8

⋅

3

=

24

Therefore, the least common multiple is 24.

Please help, I don’t know how to do this. Use a compass and straightedge to construct a line perpendicular to the given through
Tasya [4]

Step-by-step explanation: B

put the center of the circle on the right of the line and the edge of the circle on the p. Make part of a circle. you dont have to do the whole circle, but you can if you want.

do the same thing again but on the other side of the line.

now it should look like the first image i included (if you didnt do the whole circle)

now take your straightedge/ruler/line maker and make it go through the intersecting points on the circles, like the second image.

Note that my images are for demonstration. They're not perfect at all, they're just to show you how to do it.

I need to find the answer to these questions in about 10 minutes or I'm screwed. please help me out.
Savatey [412]
For the first figure, the geometric figure used in the construction that is shown is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the triangle is the center of the inscribed circle.

For the second figure, the construction of the above figure in the circle represents how to find the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of triangle ABC.

For the third figure, the statement that is demonstrated in the in line P intersecting line m perpendicularly is the set of points equidistant from the endpoints of  a line segment  is the perpendicular bisector of the segment.
