Oct/Nov 2008 - Math
« on: October 25, 2009, 01:23:10 pm »
Hiya!

I was always curious how would final answer look like; I solved this ages ago, but I was never sure of the answer. Can someone upload a picture of the answer? I'd appreciate it.

Thanks in advance  :D

hey that is easy
first take ur compass then mark equal distance BD then make an arc app. make a circle towards the right of B keeping the center B
then take the compass and  measure BC without moving or changing it, place the pointer(the fixed point) on C
draw the arc such that it cuts the previous one
the intersection is known as point D' (image of D)

maybe something like this
PS : the shaded region is the locus (i too am a little doubtful abt this)

EDITED : REmoved the shaded region..only a line (arc) the red line
