OpenStudy (anonymous):

I MEAN TO SAY THAT WHERE IS THE POINT P......

OpenStudy (anonymous):

P is the midpoint

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this wht it looks like

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the length of XP using AX (which is half AB) and AP=52 and Pythagorean Theorem. Assuming P is the midpoint of XY, take twice XP and you're finished. If you aren't told that P is the midpoint of XY, the problem is unsolvable: other pictures have different XY length. |dw:1326605270547:dw|
