Answer:

AC = \sqrt{AB^2 + BC^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to draw the figure.

When the rectangle is folded A to C. we get a right triangle.

Here we have to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the side lenght of B.

The sides length of B is AC.

By the Pythagorean theorem, the sum of the squares of the sides is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Therefore,

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

Taking the square roots on both sides, we get

AC = \sqrt{AB^2 + BC^2}

On the plane curve defined by the parametric equations below, what point corresponds to t= -1
Anton [14]
The equation x=2t-1 represent the x-coordinate. To get the value of x, substitute t with -1.

That is:  x = 2(-1) - 1
                 = -2-1 
                = -3
Likewise, the equation y=t∧-3 represent the y-coordinate. Substituting t with -1,
 
  y = (-1)∧-3
    = -1

The point that correspond to t=-1 is (-3,-1).
