Answer:

Something like this

Step-by-step explanation:

distance √(-1 - 5)² + (-6 - -4)² = √36 + 4 = √40 = 6.32

slope = 2/-6 = -1/3

distance (-1,-4) to (0, -4.63)

√(-1 - 0)² + (-4 - -4.63...)² = √1.4 = 1.18

6.32 - 1.18 = 5.14

1.18 : 5.14

Answer:

ratio 5:1

coordinates (0,-13/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

let any point on y-axis  (0,y)  divides the join of A(5,-6) and B(-1,-4) in the ratio k:1

0=\frac{-1(k)+1(5)}{k+1} \\or~0=-k+5\\or~ k=5\\\therefore ~y-axis~ divides ~A,B~in~the~ratio~5:1\\y=\frac{5(-4)+1(-6)}{5+1} =\frac{-26}{6} =-\frac{13}{3}

so coordinates of point of intersection are (0,-13/3)

How do i find the missing sides?

4. You're right that the leg labeled x occurs in a 1-to-2 ratio with the hypotenuse, but more to the point, it also occurs with the leg of length 10 in a 1-to-\sqrt3 ratio. In other words,

10=x\sqrt3\implies x=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt3}

and so

2x=\dfrac{20}{\sqrt3}


5. In this kind of triangle, the legs form a 1-to-\sqrt2 ratio with the hypotenuse, so it follows that x=2.1.

6. You have x and x\sqrt3 mismatched. The larger leg in this kind of triangle has the \sqrt3 scaling factor. So in fact, x=25, which makes the larger leg x\sqrt3=25\sqrt3, and the hypotenuse would be 2x=50.
