Answer:

Height, base(4,1) to A(4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The height that is shown is incorrect as it is showing the distance between A and B, which is not the height of the triangle, and simply a side. We need to find the altitude(height) which is a line perpendicular to the base. If we draw a line that is perpendicular to the base that intersects the highest point of the triangle, A, we get the point of intersection of that line and the base at (4,1)

Answer: height;  (4, 1) to (4, 3)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Area of a triangle is (1/2) b × h  where h is perpendicular to the base.

The base is correct - distance from (1, 1) to (4, 1).

The height is incorrect. It should be the distance from (4, 1) to (4, 3).

Does this look correct?
Neko [114]
That is not correct.  I will help you.  Begin by subtracting the 9x from both sides, like this:  9x - 9x + 2y = 6 - 9x.  That simplifies to 2y = -9x + 6.  Now divide both sides by 2 to get y all alone, like this:  \frac{2y}{2}=- \frac{9}{2}x+ \frac{6}{2}.  That reduces down to y=- \frac{9}{2}x+3.  That is slope-intercept form.  y = mx + b.
