Exercise Chapter 6

This document contains 13 multi-part math word problems involving geometry concepts like lines, loci, triangles, ratios, and intercept form. The problems require calculating values, finding equations of lines and loci, determining whether lines are parallel/perpendicular, and computing areas of shapes. Solving these problems systematically using properties of lines, triangles, ratios, and coordinate geometry is needed to fully answer each question.
