Alexa drew AB on a piece of a paper, and then folded the paper so that Point A was on Point B. She claims the crease forms right angles with AB. In two or more complete sentences, explain why Alexa is correct.

Verified Answer :

She would be right because if you look at it she folded the paper in half, so A was on top of B. And yes it does form right angle it's a lot easier to see if you do it is a little hard to explain~ Sorry

Answer:

Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Alexa drew AB on a piece of a paper, and then folded the paper so that Point A was on Point B.

When Alexa folds the paper the line along the folding forms the line of reflection of A on B.

Now we have AB passing through the line of reflection such that AB cuts the folding line at mid point say C

AC=BC

And also C is right angled by the property of transformation of reflection on a line.

Hence Alexa is correct
