Question

Tony plotted points P, Q, and R to represent the vertices of a triangle as shown in the figure below.

Answer 1

What should Tony do to make triangle PQR an acute scalene triangle?
Answer Choices:
Move Q to the right of segment XY beyond the arc.

Move P to the point of intersection of segment XY and the arc.

Move R to the point of intersection of segment XY and segment LM.

Move P to the right of segment XY beyond the arc.

Answer 2

@tible19 @qweqwe123123123123111 do you know this one? I dont even have a guess

Answer 3

well it wouldnt be a because that would make it obtuse...

Answer 4

@tible19 i barely remember this

Answer 5

wait i mean that would make it a right triangle...

Answer 6

grr wait b would make it a right triangle

Answer 7

@tible19 so its definitely not A or B?O.o

Answer 8

right...

Answer 9

This is the WEIRDEST damned question I think I've ever seen on here.

Much as I dislike just handing out answers, I'm just gonna do it here because it's so bizarre.

Move P to the right of segment XY beyond the arc.

That makes Q an acute angle with no possibility of any legs being equal length (which is the definition of a scalene)

Answer 10

lol i was about to say that

Answer 11

:-)

Answer 12

@tible19 @qweqwe123123123123111 ohh okay thank you guys so muchhh(:!

Answer 13

NP!! And thanks!! :-)

Answer 14

glad to be of service :3

Answer 15

i have another question that im stuck between two answers

Answer 16

ok

Answer 17

do i put it here or another post?

Answer 18

either way i don't mind

Answer 19

Look at the triangle XYZ with O as its circumcenter.

Which line segment will pass through point O in the triangle XYZ?

Answer Choices:
The line segment from angle Z perpendicular to side XY.

The line segment from angle X that is perpendicular to side ZY.

The line segment bisecting angle XZY.

The line segment which is the perpendicular bisector of side ZY.

Answer 20

im thinking its D?

Answer 21

or B?

Answer 22

ok...

Answer 23

@tible19 ok im right? or ok you're thinking lol?

Answer 24

the second .-.

Answer 25

@tible19 ohh okay lol

Answer 26

lol uh yeah i think it is B... but you might wanna ask qweqwe first

Answer 27

@tible19 okay thanks. @qweqwe123123123123111 do you agree its B?

Answer 28

i dont know what to put:/

Answer 29

Nope, it's not B

The circumcenter of a triangle is that point through which all PERPINDICULAR BISECTORS of every side pass through. They only bisect their opposite angle on a isosceles or equilateral triangle.

Answer 30

@qweqwe123123123123111 so is it D?

Answer 31

IOW, draw a line at a right angle to any side and put it at the center of that side, and all 3 lines will pass through a single point called the "circumcenter"

Answer 32

Yup. D. :-)

Answer 33

@qweqwe123123123123111 yayyyyy lol

Answer 34

The red dot in the middle of this triangle is its circumcenter:

Answer 35

@qweqwe123123123123111 so the point O is the circumcenter of the triangle in the question?

Answer 36

@qweqwe123123123123111 @tible19 i tagged you in another question that i need help

Answer 37

ok

Answer 38

sorry i was finishing a science test

Answer 39

@tible19 its okay take your time

Answer 40

ok what question did you need help on?

Answer 41

@tible19 i tagged you in it again

Answer 42

Yes!! Very good!! :-)

BTW, there's another kind of triangle center called a "centroid" that is the "center of gravity" so to speak of a triangle.

In that kind, drawing lines from the centers of the side through the verteces of their opposite angles will also pass through a single point called its "centroid"

Answer 43

@qweqwe123123123123111 ohh yes i remember studying centroids (:

Answer 44

I can't find any other tags but here. Where's your "other question"?

Answer 45

@ganeshie8

Answer 46

First question....

Answer 47

Move P to the right of segment XY beyond the arc.

Answer 48

that gives u acute scalene

Answer 49

THanks!
