HELPHELP In this figure, a line through points x and y will _.
A. Be perpendicular to AB but not bisect it
B. Be the perpendicular bisector of AB
C. Bisect AB but not perpendicular
D. Be unrelated to AB

B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure, its clear that the compass drew arcs like below:

With A as centre, and more than half of the length of AB as radius, one arc is drawn.

With the same radius, with B as centre, another arc is drawn.

The points of intersections of the arcs are X and Y.

Clearly, this is the construction of a perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB.

Hence, if we draw a line segment through XY, it will be a perpendicular bisector of AB.

Step-by-step explanation:

i believe the answer is d.

hope it you! : d

reduce the friction between its moving parts

step-by-step explanation:

in fact, by reducing the friction between the moving parts of the machine, it is possible to reduce the energy wasted due to this friction; therefore, more input energy is converted into useful work, and this will improve the efficiency of the machine.
