Victor is walking at a rate of 1 mile every 17 minutes. sarah is walking at a rate of 1 mile every 14 minutes. if they are 10 miles apart and are approaching each other along a straight road, how many hours will it take them to meet, rounded to the nearest hundredth?

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.

where is abdul's work? don't see that anywhere posted : /

step-by-step explanation:

the answer should be a. snail
