Answer to Problem 4WE
The distance between P and A is just less than 5 cm. Also shown in the following figure,
Explanation of Solution
Given information: There are three points F, T and P and a line which is perpendicular to the join of F and T and bisects FT. It is to be found the distance from P to the line perpendicular to the join of F and T.
Formula used: Use a centimeter ruler for measurement of line segments.
Calculation: Hold the ruler in such a way that the zero mark of the ruler coincides with P. Mark the other point that coincides with the line perpendicular to the join of F and T as A. Read the measurement on the ruler which comes out to be just less than the 5th centimeter. Thus PA is just less than 5 cm. Use a ruler to set the distance from the point of the compass needle to the pencil's lead equal to PA. Place the compass needle at P and rotate it about 360 degrees as shown in the figure below.

- Solve this question and check if my answer provided is correctarrow_forwardProof: LN⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯LN¯ divides quadrilateral KLMN into two triangles. The sum of the angle measures in each triangle is ˚, so the sum of the angle measures for both triangles is ˚. So, m∠K+m∠L+m∠M+m∠N=m∠K+m∠L+m∠M+m∠N=˚. Because ∠K≅∠M∠K≅∠M and ∠N≅∠L, m∠K=m∠M∠N≅∠L, m∠K=m∠M and m∠N=m∠Lm∠N=m∠L by the definition of congruence. By the Substitution Property of Equality, m∠K+m∠L+m∠K+m∠L=m∠K+m∠L+m∠K+m∠L=°,°, so (m∠K)+ m∠K+ (m∠L)= m∠L= ˚. Dividing each side by gives m∠K+m∠L=m∠K+m∠L= °.°. The consecutive angles are supplementary, so KN⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯∥LM⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯KN¯∥LM¯ by the Converse of the Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem. Likewise, (m∠K)+m∠K+ (m∠N)=m∠N= ˚, or m∠K+m∠N=m∠K+m∠N= ˚. So these consecutive angles are supplementary and KL⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯∥NM⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯KL¯∥NM¯ by the Converse of the Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem. Opposite sides are parallel, so quadrilateral KLMN is a parallelogram.arrow_forwardQuadrilateral BCDE is similar to quadrilateral FGHI. Find the measure of side FG.
