Using the number line, the numbers that are 9 units from -5 are: -14 and 4.

<h3>How to Locate a Number on a Number line?</h3>

To find two numbers that cover the same units from a given point on a number line, we can simply do the following:

Count the number of units given backwards/to the left from the point stated to get the first number.
Count the number of units given forwards/to the right from the point stated to get the second number.

Thus, we are asked to find the numbers that would be 9 units from -5, using the number line.

Count 9 units backwards/to the left from -5 to get the first number, which is: -14

Count 9 units forwards/to the right from the -5 to get the second number, which is: 4.

Therefore, the numbers that are 9 units from -5 on the number line, are: -14 and 4.

The measure of the other side of a quadrilateral is $3\sqrt{13}$ cm.

In the given quadrilateral one side is unknown we need to find the unknown side.

By dividing the given quadrilateral into a rectangle and a triangle we can find the other side.

<h3>What is Pythagoras theorem?</h3>

The Pythagoras theorem states that if a triangle is right-angled, then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. That is, $c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}$ .
