Question 1 (10 points)
1 answer:
A. AB = √13 units; BC = √13 units; AC = √26 units
B. Slope of AB = 3/2; Slope of BC = -3/2; Slope of AC = -5
C. The triangles have two equal sides, therefore, it is an isosceles triangle.
<h3>How to Find the Slope and Length Between Two Points?</h3>Slope (m) = change in y / change in x.
To find the length of each side, use the distance formula, .
Given the following vertices:
A(0, 2),
B(2, 5),
C (-1, 7)
Part A:
AB = √[(2−0)² + (5−2)²]
AB = √13 units
BC = √[(2−(−1))² + (5−7)²]
BC = √13 units
AC = √[(0−(−1))² + (2−7)²]
AC = √26 units
Part B:
Slope of AB = (5 - 2)/(2 - 0)
Slope of AB = 3/2
Slope of BC = (7 - 5)/(-1 - 2)
Slope of BC = -3/2
Slope of AC = (7 - 2)/(-1 - 0)
Slope of AC = -5
Part C:
The triangles have two equal sides, therefore, it is an isosceles triangle.

Descartes' rule of signs tells you the one sign change in the coefficients means there's one positive real root. If you change the sign of the odd-power terms, the signs become -++-, so have two sign changes. This means there are 0 or 2 negative real roots.
A graph shows there to be 3 real roots, two of which are negative. Thus there are no complex roots.
