Explanation:

All of these are done the same way.

1. Set your compass to a distance slightly longer than the distance from the point to the line you want the perpendicular to.

2. Using the point as a center, draw an arc that intersects the line in 2 places. Consider those points to be "P" and "Q".

3. You can leave the compass as is, or set it to any other distance longer than half the distance between P and Q. Using this radius, and using P and Q as centers, draw intersecting arcs on the other side of the line from the original point. Consider the intersection of those arcs to be point "R".

4. A line through the original point and point R will be perpendicular to the line, as you want.

_____

In problem 1, the point and line are obvious.

In problem 2, the point is the vertex opposite the line of interest. (There will be 3 similar constructions.)

b = 17

a² + b² = c²

4²+ 17² = c²

16 + 289 = c²

305 = c²

√305 = c

2x+6=27
-6
2x=21
/2
x=10.5
+6
Therefore the Width =10.5 M
The Length = 16.5 M
