The diagram shows the scale drawing of a sandpit, ABCD. It also shows the arc of all points in the sandpit that are 80 cm from corner A.
Scale: 1 cm represents 20 cm
A game is played by throwing a ball into the sandpit. Points may be scored when the ball lands in the sandpit.
• 1 point if the ball lands within 80 cm of corner A, and
• 1 point if the ball is closer to side AB than side AD, and
• 1 point if the ball is closer to corner A than corner B.
By completing the construction, find and shade the regions where 2 points can be scored.
Show all your construction lines.
