Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

To construct:

A perpendicular bisector of the line segment.

To divide: The line segment into three equal parts.

Answer to Problem 1A

Area A=1.72in2.

Explanation of Solution

Steps of construction:

  1. Taking A as a centre and radius more than half of AB, draw arcs on both the above and below the line segment AB as shown in figure (a).
  2. Similarly, taking B as a centre and radius same as above draw another arc on both the sides of the line segment that intersects the first pair of arcs as shown in the diagram (b).
  3. Join both the arcs by drawing a straight line. Line CD as shown in figure (c), is the perpendicular bisector of line segment AB with O as a centre.

Divide the line segment into three equal parts:

Steps of construction:

  1. From point A, draw a line segment AC forming an angle with AB as shown in fig(a).
  2. On line segment AC with the help of a compass mark three equal arcs D, E and F of any length (b).
  3. Connect point F with point B.
  4. Now taking F as a centre, draw arcs which intersect the line segment AC at G and BF at H.
  5. Repeat the procedure by taking D and E as centre and mark an arc of same radii as shown in figure.
  6. With the help of a compass measure the distance GH and mark the same distance from other two arcs as well which intersects the arcs at point K and M respectively.
  7. Join E with K and D with M and extending the lines past AB. Thus, line segment AB is divided into three equal parts.

2. In a computer network some pairs of computers are connected by network cables. Your goal is to set up the computers so that messages can be sent quickly from any computer to any other computer. For this you have identified each of the n com- puters uniquely with a number between 1 and n, and have decided that a message should consist of two such numbers, identifying the sender and the recipient, fol- lowed by the content of the message. As cables are relatively short, you can assume that sending a message across a single cable takes an amount of time that is the same irrespective of the length of the cable. You can further assume that at most one message travels between computer at any point, so that you don't have to worry about inference among messages. (a) Define a graph or network that models the computer network and allows you to answer the remaining parts of this question. (b) Consider two computers, a sender and a recipient. Using the graph or network you have defined,…
