Answers A, B, and D are lines that do not intersect the given lines at their point of intersection, hence they do not divide the angles formed by the given lines in any fashion, much less by bisection. The line represented by answer C does intersect at the point of intersection of the two given lines, but it appears to bisect the ACUTE angles formed by the given lines, not the OBTUSE angles.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What you need is an equation of a line that passes through the point \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "John \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
