    The document provides instructions for drawing a scale diagram to solve a geometry problem given distances in a scale of 1cm:10m. It describes drawing lines to represent distances AB, BC, and AC on the scale diagram using a ruler and compass. It then explains how to find the distances from points A and B to the midpoints of lines BC and AC, respectively, using the scale to determine the actual distances in meters.

    For @NoMirchisAdded Answer: Given the scale 1cm:10m, AB=90/10=9cm BC=70/10=7cm AC=85/10=8.

    5cm Now, draw the line AB 9cm apart using a ruler. Next, use a compass and expand its arms 7cm and draw an arc keeping the pointed arm of the compass on point B. Then draw another arc of 8.5cm from point A (following the same procedure for the compass as above). Where the two arcs cut, THAT is the point C. Join AC and BC. Now, for the distance of A from the midpoint of BC: You know that BC=7cm so halfway point (or midpoint) of that is 7/2=3.5cm. Draw a line from A to this midpoint. Use the ruler to find out its distance. This will be 7cm on the diagram i.e. 7x10=70m For the distance of B from the midpoint of AC: You know that AC=8.5cm so its halfway point (or midpoint) is 8.5/2=4.25cm. Draw a line connecting B with this midpoint of AC. Use the ruler. This distance will be about 6.8cm i.e. 6.8x10=68m
