draw the perpendicular bisector XY whose length is 10.3 CM if m is midpoint of XY
what can you say about the length MX and XY
Answers
MX=MY
MX is half of XY
Step-by-step explanation:
steps to draw a line segment :
(1) Draw a line l . mark a point X on it.
(2)since the length is 10.3 cm, we measure 10.3 cm using ruler or compass.
(3) now keeping the compass open the same length. we keep pointed end at X and draw an arc on line l.
(4) so the required line segment is XY = 10.3 cm
steps to draw perpendicular bisector:
(1) given line segment XY
(2) now with X as a center , radius more than half of XY,draw an arc on the top and bottom of the XY.
(3)now, with Y as a center and same radius, draw an arc n top and bottom of the XY.
(4)where the two arcs intersect above XY is point C and where the two arcs intersect below XY is point D .
(5) CD is the perpendicular bisector of XY.
now,
where CD intersects XY is the mid point of XY.
so, M is the mid point .
therefore ,
MX=MY
hence,
MX is half of XY
