Question

Describe how to find all the points on a baseball field that are equidistant from second base and third base.

Answer 1

From the given diagram, the following statements are true:

AB = BC

3y = 5y - 22

3y - 5y = -22

-2y = -22

y = 11

Similarly, m<DBE = 50 degrees

m<BED = 90 - m<DBE

m<BED = 90 - 50

m<BED = 40 degrees

Since BE = BC = 3y

BE = BC = 3(11) = 33

Also, 7x  - 2 = 40

7x = 40 + 2

7x = 42

x = 6

Get the measure of m<BEA

m<BEA = 7x - 2

m<BEA = 7(6) - 2

m<BEA = 40 degrees
