train a and train b leave a central station at the same time. they travel the same speed, but in opposite directions, with train a heading towards station a, and train b heading towards station b. train a reaches station a after 4 h. train b reaches station b after 312 h. station a and station b are 562.5 mi apart.

what is the rate of the trains?

the first one is x^2+2x+2

the second one is x^2+4

the last one is x^2-4x+8

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.

answer: 180 degrees clockwise
