Which step in the construction of copying a line segment ensures that the new line segment has the same length as the original line segment?

The step that ensures the new line segment has the same length as the original line segment involves using a compass to measure the distance between the endpoints of the original segment. By placing the compass point on one endpoint and adjusting it to the other endpoint, the same width can be transferred to the new location where the new segment will be constructed. This guarantees that the new line segment will be congruent in length to the original one.


What is the shortest distance between a straight line and a curve?

If you translate (move without rotation) a copy of the line towards the curve, the first point where the line touches the curve (the tangent to the curve with the slope of the original line) will be the point on the curve closest to the line. Draw a connecting line from this tangent point to the original line, intersecting that original line at right angles. Measure the connecting segment. It is the shortest distance. Vector analysis will give a mathematically strict solution, I do not have the ability to explain this in sufficient detail.

Does w have a vertical line if symetry?

A line of symmetry is a line upon which you could place a mirror and the resulting image would be the same as the original image. Vertical means that this line goes straight up. Thus, W does have a vertical line of symmetry. You could place a mirror straight up in the middle of the W, and the reflection on one side would be the same as the original image.

What is a flat line in rugby?

Normally when you see the back line up behind the forwards when on an attacking ball the line is diagonal which allows for the attack to take place and players are then technically behind the ball carrier. IN an defensive line the backs will line up in a straight line (Flat) This allows them to implement a rush defense where the defending team will run at their opposite number to either intercept, tackle of spoil the pass of the attacking team.
