Draw a diagram (shown below as attachment)

check each option

1st one: obtuse triangle
osbuse means that the triangle has an angle more than 90 degrees
remember that all angles add to 180
90 is one
90+D+F=180
D+F=90
so those 2 mystery angles both have to be less than 90 so therefor none of them can be obtuse
not 1st option

2nd: angle at D is acute
acute means less than 90
so we remember that
D+F=90
no angle can be 0 so let's say F is a very small number like 0.0001
then D would be 89.9999
still less than 90, it is acute
this 2nd optin is right

3rd: angle at F is obtuse
wrong, from 1st one, no obtuse angles
3rd option is wrong

4th: right triangle
duh, a right triangle has a right angle in it
90 degrees is a right angle
yes
4th optin is right

5th: D is obtuse
naw, fam. no obtuse angles here

the right answers are 2nd and 4th or
The angle at vertex D is acute and
Triangle DEF is a right triangle

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{y=\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{3}\ \vee\ y=\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

We have

$m=\dfrac{2}{3}$

substitute:

$y=\dfrac{2}{3}x+b$

The formula of a distance between a point and a line:

General form of a line:

$Ax+By+C=0$

Point:

$(x_0,\ y_0)$

Distance:

$d=\dfrac{|Ax_0+By_0+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+b^2}}$

Convert the equation:

$y=\dfrac{2}{3}x+b$ |<em>subtract $y$ from both sides</em>

$\dfrac{2}{3}x-y+b=0$ |<em>multiply both sides by 3</em>

$2x-3y+3b=0\to A=2,\ B=-3,\ C=3b$

Coordinates of the point:

$(0,\ 0)\to x_0=0,\ y_0=0$

substitute:

$d=4$

$4=\dfrac{|2\cdot0+(-3)\cdot0+3b|}{\sqrt{2^2+(-3)^2}}\\\\4=\dfrac{|3b|}{\sqrt{4+9}}$

$4=\dfrac{|3b|}{\sqrt{13}}\qquad|$ |<em>multiply both sides by $\sqrt{13}$ </em>

$4\sqrt{13}=|3b|\iff3b=-4\sqrt{13}\ \vee\ 3b=4\sqrt{13}$ |<em>divide both sides by 3</em>

$b=-\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{3}\ \vee\ b=\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{3}$

Finally:

$y=\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{3}\ \vee\ y=\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{3}$
