Cedar City boasts two city parks and is in the process of designing a third. The planning committee would
like all three parks to be equidistant from one another to better serve the community. A sketch of the
city appears below, with the centers of the existing parks labeled as P, and P2. Identify two possible
locations for the third park, and label them as Psa and Psv on the map. Clearly and precisely list the
mathematical steps used to determine each of the two potential locations.
