(a)
To Draw: an acute
(a)

Answer to Problem 14WE
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An acute triangle.
Calculation:
An acute is in which all interior
First, draw perpendicular bisector of side AB using following steps.
- Using C as center, draw two arcs of equal radii that intersect AB at X and Y.
- Using X and Y as centers and a suitable radius, draw arcs that intersect at point Z.
- Join CZ, it is a perpendicular bisector of side AB as shown below.
Similarly, perpendicular bisector side BC and AC are drawn as shown below.
(b)
To Find: whether the perpendicular bisector to all side in an acute triangle intersect at a point or not.
(b)

Answer to Problem 14WE
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An acute triangle with perpendicular bisectors.
Calculation:
Perpendicular bisectors are drawn is shown below.
Yes, they do intersect at a point.
(c)
To Draw: an acute triangle and construct perpendicular bisector of each side.
(c)

Answer to Problem 14WE

- Can someone help me with this please?arrow_forwardMariela is in her classroom and looking out of a window at a tree, which is 20 feet away. Mariela’s line of sight to the top of the tree creates a 42° angle of elevation, and her line of sight to the base of the tree creates a 31° angle of depression. What is the height of the tree, rounded to the nearest foot? Be sure to show your work to explain how you got your answer.arrow_forward1arrow_forward
