Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2 \sqrt{26}  \:  \:  \:  \: units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points of a line segment can be found by using the formula

d =  \sqrt{ ({x_1 - x_2})^{2} +  ({y_1 - y_2})^{2}  } \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

P(-4, -2) and Q(-6, 8)

The length of the line segment is

|PQ|  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 4 + 6})^{2} +  ({ - 2 - 8})^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{ {2}^{2}  +  ({ - 10})^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{4 + 100}  \\  =  \sqrt{104}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  = 2 \sqrt{26}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:

We have the final answer as

2 \sqrt{26}  \:  \:  \:  \: units

Hope this helps you

How do I find X in this problem
pogonyaev
You know that BC is congruent to x so you need to solve for x using the ratio:
\frac{12}{24}=\frac{x}{BC}

So then we need to find BC.

We know:
A=\frac{base \times height}{2}
28=\frac{BC \times 7}{2}
Therefore BC =8

Then:
\frac{12}{24}=\frac{x}{8}
x=8 \times \frac{12}{24} = 4
