You have to translate the triangle over to where point B is lined up with point B in the second triangle. Then you can reflect over the y-axis.
So...your answer should be...
Step 1:A.
Step 2:C.
Answer:
21+/-sqrt(253)=x
So one value for x is 21+sqrt(253)
and another is 21-sqrt(253)
Problem:
Given (21,7) and (x,1), find all x such that the distance between these two points is 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
Change in x is x-21
Change in y is 7-1=6
distance^2=(change in x)^2+(change in y)^2
17^2=(x-21)^2+(6)^2
289=(x-21)^2+36
Subtract 36 on both sides:
289-36=(x-21)^2
253=(x-21)^2
Take square root of both sides:
+/-sqrt(253)=x-21
Add 21 on both sides:
21+/-sqrt(253)=x
Answer:
20.568
