Answer:
(a) isosceles
(b), (c) scalene
Step-by-step explanation:
The lengths of the sides can be found from the distance formula:
d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)
Here, there are 9 lengths to be computed, so it is useful to let a spreadsheet or graphing calculator do it.
We find triangle (a) has two sides the same length, so it is isosceles.
The other two triangles have three different side lengths, so they are scalene.

<em>Additional comment</em>
It is impossible to specify an equilateral triangle using rational coordinates.
slope of line=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
give is
(x1,y1)=(8,2)
(x2,y2)=(10,2)
therefore slope =(2-2)/(10-8)=0/2=0
Hence
answer
Slope of line=0
Given that ΔBDA is similar to ΔBDC and:
AD≡DC
AB≡BC
BD≡BD (shared side)
then the best postulate to use is the side-side-side (SSS) postulate.
Answer: SSS
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 and 2 are linear pairs
1 and 3 are verticle
4 and 5 are adjacent
First you want to figure out 196- 16. That will give you 180. Now divide 180 by 2, which is 90. So the numbers in the parentheses have to add up to 90. Now you want to add 7 and 5. This will give you twelve. Then subtract 12 from 90 to get 78. 78 divided by 3 will give you nine. 78 divided by 3 is 26, so y would be equal to 26.
