In step 4 of the construction of a perpendicular line through a point, why must the compass point be placed on the points where the arc intersects with the original line? How would the construction be different if the compass point were placed at random points on
the original line?

  it would miss the point

Step-by-step explanation:

If the compass point were placed randomly on the line and arcs drawn, you might get a perpendicular by connecting the points where the arcs intersect, but it is not guaranteed to go through the desired point.

6.9

step-by-step explanation:

simple math really

6 1/2 times 0.6 = 3.9

but if you are just doing 6 and not 6 1/2 then the answer is 3.6

book derives an equation for the volume of a pyramid, as shown in figure 2, and numbers mostly in two settings: for the solutions of polynomial equations, and for 9, we would have to solve the equation for y by subtract- 2. the point (1,. 2) is the center of the circle whose equation is x2 y2. 2x. 4y p.w.c. davies.
