1 answer:

7 0

$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&&(~ 9 &,& 2~) 
% (c,d)
&&(~ 3 &,& -8~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-8-2}{3-9}\implies \cfrac{-10}{-6}\implies \cfrac{5}{3}$

Raymond was riding a zip-cable from the top of a viewing post. The cable is 65 yards long. The viewing post is 52 yards high and

grin007 [14]

In order to figure out the horizontal distance Raymond travels using his zip cable, we may simply apply Pythagoras theorem which is, for a right triangle:
hypotenuse² = base² + height²
base = √(hypotenuse² - height²)
base = √(65² - 52²)
base = 39 yards
Raymond will travel a horizontal distance of 39 yards.
