Answer 4

Look at the attachment to see the perpendicular bisector.
I don't see that any of the options go with this problem.
Would you check to see if you posted the problem correctly.
Thanks.

Answer 5

Suppose all of the points in the figure are equidistant. Start with your compass point on point B. To create a perpendicular bisector of BE, open the compass to _____

point C.
point A.
point D.
a position between points B and C.

Answer 6

This question is poorly written. My best guess is open the compass to point D. From point B, a radius of BD can be formed. That would be the first step in constructing the perpendicular bisector.

Answer 7

OK im lost haha

Answer 8

im sorry math is my weakness

Answer 9

I am trying to guess what the question author had in mind. If it were my question to answer, I would choose point D. That's a semi-guess. You may want to choose another answer.

Answer 10

The correct answer is D. The question is clear.
