What are the steps for using a compass and straightedge to construct a square? drag the steps and drop them in order from start to finish. construct a circle with point h as the center and a circle with point j as a center with each circle having radius hj .construct horizontal hj¯¯¯¯¯ construct a circle with point m as the center with radius mj .label the point of intersection of the two circles above hj¯¯¯¯¯ , point k, and the point of intersection of the two circles below hj¯¯¯¯¯ , point l. construct kl¯¯¯¯¯ , the perpendicular bisector of hj¯¯¯¯¯ , intersecting hj¯¯¯¯¯ at point m. construct hn¯¯¯¯¯¯ , nj¯¯¯¯¯ , jo¯¯¯¯¯ , and oh¯¯¯¯¯¯ to complete square hnjo .label the point of intersection of circle m and kl¯¯¯¯¯ closest to point k, point n, and the point of intersection of circle m and kl¯¯¯¯¯ closest to point l, point o.

The steps for using a compass and straightedge to construct a square are as follows:

1. Construct horizontal HJ¯¯¯¯¯ .

2. Construct a circle with point H as the center and a circle with point J as a center with each circle having radius HJ .

3. Label the point of intersection of the two circles above HJ¯¯¯¯¯ , point K, and the point of intersection of the two circles below HJ¯¯¯¯¯ , point L.

4. Construct KL¯¯¯¯¯ , the perpendicular bisector of HJ¯¯¯¯¯ , intersecting HJ¯¯¯¯¯ at point M.

5. Construct a circle with point M as the center with radius MJ .

6. Label the point of intersection of circle M and KL¯¯¯¯¯ closest to point K, point N, and the point of intersection of circle M and KL¯¯¯¯¯ closest to point L, point O.

7. Construct HN¯¯¯¯¯¯ , NJ¯¯¯¯¯ , JO¯¯¯¯¯ , and OH¯¯¯¯¯¯ to complete square HNJO .

you didn't post any answer choices, so its not 100% clear what your teacher is looking for

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)

"standard form:

3x2 + 14x − 10 = 0

solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1   = −14 − √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 − 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ −5.296

x2   = −14 + √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 + 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ 0.629
