The following steps show how the equation for the average rate can be transformed so that it is written in terms of only the rates for each leg of the trip. Write an algebraic justification for each step. Think about the number operations and properties that you know. please help i'm really confused

step-by-step explanation:

place r′ so that qr′ is parallel to the tangent.

now we get that ∠r′py=∠pr′q, where y is on the tangent, on the opposite side of p from x.

also, because of the symmetry, ∠r′py=∠qpx.

finally, note that no matter where we place r, as long as it's on the correct arc, we have ∠prq=∠pr′q.

stringing all these equalities together, we end up with ∠prq=∠qpx.

this picture will show how its going to look like.
