Answer:
A. the perpendicular bisector of the line segment XY
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that one point equidistant from X and Y is the midpoint of segment XY. The third vertex of an isosceles triangle with XY as its base will also be equidistant from X and Y. That vertex will be located on the perpendicular bisector of XY.
The locus of points of interest is the perpendicular bisector of XY.

For many geometry problems, it can be helpful to draw a diagram.
Where all the lines meet to make an X .
360= 2x+3y+(x-12)+(y+20)
360= 3x+4y+8
352=3x+4y
352-3x=4y
88-3x/4=y
352-4y=3x
117 1/3 -4y/3=x
I'm proabably wrong, but I tried.
Answer:
5.63
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle NLM is equal to KLM - KLN.
Since KLM = 137° and KLN = 47°, NLM = °90. (Maybe it doesn't look like a right angle, but the math doesn't lie.)
Since NLM = 16y, then 90 = 16y.
Dividing both sides by 16, we find that:
y = 5.625
