A scalene triangle has no sides that are congruent to each other. This means that there no identical measurement of the lengths and angles of the triangle. This is a kind of triangle which has unique values for a,b,and c in a Pythagorean theorem.
It is asking you to find the sum of k^2 - 1 from k=1 to k=4. Since that is only 4 numbers, calculating the sum by hand wouldn’t be that bad.
(1^2 - 1) + (2^2 - 1) + (3^2 - 1) + (4^2 - 1) = 26
The easier way to find the sum is to use a few simple formulas.
When we have a term that is just a constant c, the formula is c*n.
When we have a variable k, the formula is k*n*(n+1)/2.
When we have a squared variable, the formula is k*n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/6.
In this case, we have a squared variable k^2 and a constant of -1.
So plug in n=4 to the formulas:
4*5*9/6 - 1*4 = 26
The answer is 26
Considering the slopes of the segments, the correct option is:
D. No, because the triangle ABC doesn't have a pair of perpendicular sides.
<h3>When are lines parallel, perpendicular or neither?</h3>
The slope, given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, determines if the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, as follows:
- If they are equal, the lines are parallel.
- If their multiplication is of -1, they are perpendicular.
- Otherwise, they are neither.
Here, we have to find if there are perpendicular segments, that is, if two slopes multiplied have a value of -1, then:
- mAB = (-7 - 9)/(11 - 1) = -8/5.
- mAC = (3 - 9)/(-9 - 1) = 3/5.
- mBC = (3 - (-7))/(-9 - 11) = -1/2.
No sides are perpendicular, hence option D is correct.
