To find:total number of red points 15 cm from both F and T.
Answer to Problem 2CE
There will be 2 points.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
Review the diagram.
Since all red points (or the red line) is stated to be equidistant from points T and F in the text, this means that the distance from any point on the red line to both points T and F are the same.
Accordingly, you can draw a line that is exactly 15 cm from point T to the line, and another line that is exactly 15 cm from point F to the line, as shown in the diagram.
In addition, you can also draw a second pair of lines in the same manner that is below the points T and F, as shown in this diagram.
These are the only 2 points that are equidistant from points T and F on the red line (your points).
