Line segment AB and CD both are congruent with the length of 16 units.
We have been given two line segment AB and CD of whose coordinates are :
A = -7 , B = 9 and C = -4 , D = 12
The distance formula is given as |x2 – x1|
Therefore the length of AB = |9 – (-7)|
= 9 + 7
= 16
The length of CD = |12-(-4)|
= 12 + 4
= 16
Note that when two line segments are congruent then their distance is equal.
Thus both the line segment AB and CD are congruent with a length 16 unit.

Answer:
these problems are always tough b/c they want you to translate normal thinking into math jargon :D soooo....
Step-by-step explanation:
they use the point slope formula... which looks like
y = = m(x - )
where ( , ) are the x , y coordinates of some point you're given.. sooo
they give us two points.. so we can put either one of those into the formula.. but we also have to find m.... or the slope ... to find m.. use the slope equation of
m = ( - ) / ( - )
call either point P1 and P2 ... i'll pick the top point as P1 and bottom as P2
then
m = ( -3 -1 ) / ( 1 - 3 )
m = -4 / -2
m = 2 ( yay :) )
now use either point and plug it into the point slope formula, i'll use P1
y - 1 = 2(x-3) ( this is the answer they are looking for )
All together they used 26104 beads :)) I did this problem before
