    The document provides instructions for an activity to identify the optimal location for a fresh water tap or tank to service various buildings on a school site. Students are given distances between locations and asked to: [1] Construct a scale diagram showing the positions; [2] Draw loci of equidistant and 50m points; [3] Identify the region in which the tap/tank should be located; and [4] Provide an overview of the optimal location.

    COMPONENT :D
    BACKGROUND

    A fresh water tank or tap is needed to service the new science laboratories (S), computer lab
    and library (L), tuckshop (T) and the administration block (A). Power outages have made it
    apparent for a new fresh water point as the existing ones are a bit far and overpopulated.

    You have been tasked to identify a considerably fair location of the water point given the
    following information by the maintenance department.

    a. SL is 60m, LT is 80m and TA is 70m. T is on a bearing of 030⁰ from L and angle LTA is 90⁰.
    b. The tap or tank should not be more than 60m from A, should be nearer to S than T and
    not more than 50m from LT.

    ACTIVITY 1
    Using a scale of 1cm: 10m, construct the positions of S, L, T and A. [8]
    ACTIVITY 2
    Construct the locus of points that are equidistant from S and T. [2]
    ACTIVITY 3
    Construct the locus of points that are 50m from LT on the same side of LT as A. [2]
    ACTIVITY 4
    Construct the locus of points that are 60m from A. [1]
    ACTIVITY 5
    Shade the region in which the tank or tap must lie. [2]
    ACTIVITY 6
    Measure angle ASL. [2]
    ACTIVITY 7
    Give an overview on the location of the tap or tank at the identified region. [3]
