Subtract distances, or in some cases Pythagorean Theorem might be needed if the points create a diagonal

When two lines intersect at 90° degrees angle, the lines are perpendicular to each other. Two perpendicular lines, their slope will give a product of -1

i.e. if the first's line slope is 5, then the second line's will be -1 ÷ 5 = -¹/₅

To find the slope of a line, we divide the vertical distance by the horizontal distance. 

We'll use the trial and error method to find the right pairing

Let's start with A(3, 3) and B(12, 6)

Vertical distance = 

Horizontal distance = 

The slope AB = ³/₉ = ¹/₃

We want BC to have a slope -1 ÷ ¹/₃ = -3

Try C(16, -6); check the slope with B(12, 6)

Vertical distance = 

Horizontal distance = 

Slope of BC = -12 ÷ 4 = -3

The slope BC = -3 is the value we want so, tile 1 pair with tile 4

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's do A(-10, 5) and B(12, 16)

Vertical distance = 16 - 5 = 11

Horizontal distance = 12 - -10 = 22

Slope AB = ¹¹/₂₂ = ¹/₂

The perpendicular slope would be -1 ÷ ¹/₂ = -2

Try C(18, 4)  with B(12, 16)

Vertical distance = 16 - 4 = 12

Horizontal distance = 12 - 18 = -6

Slope BC = ¹²/₋₆ = -2

Slope BC and slope AB perpendicular, so tile 3 matches with tile 6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's try A(12, -14) and B(-16, 21)

Vertical distance = 21 - -14 = 35

Horizontal distance = -16 - 12 = -28

The slope AB = ³⁵/-₂₈ = ⁵/₋₄

We need the perpendicular slope to be -1 ÷ -⁵/₄ = ⁴/₅

Try C(-11, 25)

Vertical distance with B = 25 - 21 = 4

Horizontal distance with B = -11 - -16 = 5

The slope = ⁴/₅

Tile 7 matches tile 8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Take A(-12, -19) and B(20, 45)

Vertical distance = 45 - -19 = 64

Horizontal distance = 20 - -12 = 32

Slope AB = ⁶⁴/₃₂ = 2

We need the perpendicular slope to be -1 ÷ 2 = -¹/₂

We have C(6, 52) and checking the slope with B(20, 45)

Vertical distance = 45 - 52 = -7

Horizontal distance = 20 - 6 = 14

The slope is ⁻⁷/₁₄ = -¹/₂

Tile 9 pairs with tile 2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion

Tile 1 ⇒ Tile 4

Tile 3 ⇒ Tile 6

Tile 7 ⇒ Tile 8

Tile 9 ⇒ Tile 2

Tile 5 and Tile 10 do not have pairs

Carbón has an atomic number of 6 what can you conclude about carbon from this fact
Mars2501 [29]

The table of values shown below represents a linear function. Which of these points could also be an ordered pair in the table,
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

<h3>B</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

not sure if i am right but go off process of elimination

A is a not it to get slope you need to do Y=Mx+b because the slope should be 1.3 and if you get the deciml form of 3 over 9 it would be 0.75

and if you do same process on all of then you will see it is B

A square has a diagonal of 44in. I want to frame the picture, how many inches of frame do I need
dimaraw [331]

The square has a 44-inch diagonal.

The pythagorean equation must be used to obtain the hand.

Diagonal (d) ^ 2 = side^2 + side ^ 2

Diagonal (d) ^ 2 = 2side (s)^2

d^2 = 2s^2

44^2 = 2s^2

1936 = 2s^2

2s^2 = 1936

s^2 = 968

s = 31.11 inches

The length of the side is around 31 inches

Perimeter = 4*s

Perimeter = 4 * 31

Perimeter = 124 inches

As a result, you will need a total of 124 inches to frame the rectangle.

Hope this helps you!!
