Question 12a - 12c
Cedar City has two city parks and is in the process of designing a third park. The planning committee would like all three parks to be equidistant from one another to better serve the community. A sketch of the city with the centers of the existing parks labeled as P1 and P2 is shown.
Question 12a
What 2 dimensional shape can be used to model this situation. Be as specific as possible (Hint: the answer is NOT circle.)
Question 12b
Identify two possible locations for the third park, and label them as A and B on the map.
Question 12c
The city decided to build the park at location B.
Use the SEGMENT TOOL to draw the 2 dimensional shape that proves that the 3 parks will be equidistant from one another.
Then use the MOVE TOOL (the mouse icon) to turn the 2 dimensional shape red.
