I got u

so you take a line like AB and put it through the middle of WX facing down

thats my answer for 22

uh i mean...Ribbit

i would beat u if we ever met bc of how annoying u r. u prob have freckles and red hair and ur name is prob corey

i think lil darky has a problem with someone named corey

I so agree with what lil darkie said. bc if i want to cheat i will, like wtf are you going to do? 💀

did bro just write his entire life story abt jesus 💀

i need help with 22 i dont understand i got the rest but not that one

I've never been reported, just give the answer already.

Did you know?

Did you know that a perpendicular bisector can be constructed using just a compass and a straightedge? To construct a perpendicular bisector of WX, follow these steps: 1. Place the sharp end of the compass at point W and draw an arc that intersects WX. 2. Without changing the compass width, repeat Step 1, but this time place the sharp end of the compass at point X. The arc should intersect WX at a different point. 3. Use the straightedge to connect the two points where the arcs intersect WX. This line is the perpendicular bisector of WX. By using a compass to draw arcs and a straightedge to connect the intersecting points, you can effortlessly construct a perpendicular bisector, a line that divides WX into two equal halves, forming a right angle at its midpoint.
