Triangle rst has vertices located at r (2,3), s (4,4), and t (5,0).
1 answer:
The length of the sides of the triangle are; RS =√5, ST= √17 and RT=√18, their slopes in the same order are; (1/2), -4 and -1.
<h3>What is the slope about?</h3>The length of each side can be solve for by the following ways;
Side RS = √((4-2)² + (4-3)²) = √5
Side ST = √((5-4)² + (0-4)²) = √17
Side TR = √((5-2)² + (0-3)²) = √18
The slopes can be examined as;
Slope RS = (4-3)/(4-2) = 1/2
Slope ST = (0-4)/(5-4) = -4
Slope TR = (0-3)/(5-2) = -1.
Therefore, one can say that triangle RST into one of three types of triangles:
- Scalene
- Isosceles
- Equilateral
