when you find the whole in a percent problem in which the percent is greater than 100%, is the whole less than or greater than the part?

can you be more specific when you say "the part"

step-by-step explanation: it is d

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
