Question

Have I drawn this problem correctly? Please help as soon as possible. I need to know if I've gotten the hang of this.

Answer 3

I have absolutely no idea of the context of this, so I don't know... what is it?

Answer 4

Can you show a picture of the statement of the problem?

Answer 5

Jake, Mary, and Tanner are meeting at an amusement park. They each enter at a different gate. On this diagram of the park, explain where the friends can meet so that each walks the same distance from the gate to their meeting point.

Answer 6

This is my guess.

Answer 7

I don't understand why you drew that box looking figure. All you need is a triangle with three vertices.

Answer 8

I wanted to draw the image from a different view. It was easier to understand that way. So, after bisecting the triangle, the distances are equal. Jake, Mary, and Tanner should all meet at the equidistant center, right?

Answer 9

Find the midpoint of each side of the triangle. Then draw a perpendicular to each side through its midpoint. The point where all the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect is the circumcenter of the triangle which is the point equidistant from all vertices.

Answer 10

The rectangle is the park, and the small circles are the gates.

Answer 11

Yes.
