Mathematics

3 0

Answer:

(21, 17 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula and equating to the coordinates of the midpoint.

Let endpoint 2 have coordinates (x, y ), then

0.5(x - 3) = 9 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x - 3 = 18 ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 21

and

0.5(y - 5) = 6 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

y - 5 = 12 ( add 5 to both sides )

y = 17

endpoint 2 = (21, 17 )

What is the perimeter of the triangle? Round to the nearest tenth.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer: 19.8 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is shown in the attached figure, and have three vertices: $AB$ , $AC$ and $BC$ .

Each vertice represents a point in the cartesian plane and the length of each side of the triangle is the modulus of each vector.

In this sense, the modulus $m$ is calculated as shown:

$m=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}$

Hence, for each vector:

$AB=\sqrt{(-2-3)^{2} + (3-0)^{2}}=\sqrt{34}$

$AC=\sqrt{(-2-(4))^{2} + (3-(-3))^{2}}=\sqrt{40}$

$BC=\sqrt{(-4-3)^{2} + (-3-0)^{2}}=\sqrt{58}$

Now, the perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its three sides:

$AB+AC+BC=\sqrt{34} + \sqrt{40} + \sqrt{58}$

Finally:

$AB+AC+BC=19.77 \approx 19.8$

What is the distance between the points (-6,7) and (-1,1)?

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

$\sqrt{61}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance, we first do B - A, where B is (-6, 7) and A is (-1, 1):

(-6, 7) - (-1, 1) = (-6+1, 7-1) = (-5, 6)

Imagine it as a triangle, where the hypotenuse is the distance, and -5 and 6 are the lengths of the sides.

To find the hypotenuse (Pythagorean Theorem): $\sqrt{(-5)^2+6^2} =\sqrt{25+36} =\sqrt{61}$

The answer is the square root of 61.
