Question

This is important. I need help within the hour. Your math teacher manages a campground during summer vacation. He loves math so much that he has mapped the campground on a coordinate grid. The campsites have the following coordinate: Brighton Bluff at B(2,2), ponaganset peak at P(4,10) and harmony hill at h(12,2) he wants to build showers that are equidistant from all three campsites. Find the coordinates of the point where the shower should be placed. There is also an extra part I have to do that reads : what is the point that is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle?

Answer 1

I'd suggest that you set up coordinate axes and then plot all 3 points. Just doing that, and seeing the diagram, may give you just the hint you need to find a central point equidistant from all 3 points.

Answer 2

umm more specifically
