Segment wx is shown explain how you would construct a perpendicular bisector of wx using a compass and a straightedge

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   Place the compass at the endpoint W of segment WX.

2.  Adjust the compass to slightly longer than half the segment WX length.

3.  Draw arcs above and below the segment WX.

4.  Keeping the same compass width, draw arcs from the endpoint X of the segment WX.

5.   Place ruler where the arcs cross, and draw the line segment. This line is a perpendicular bisector of the segment WX.

answer: 230 miles ( vote ! )

step-by-step explanation:

180.39 minus 17.99 equals 162.4

then divide 162.4 by .80 to get 230
