The points (–5, 6) and (5, 6) are vertices of a hexagon. The line segment joining the two points forms one of the sides of the h

exagon. Which statement explains the segment formed by these endpoints?
Since the x-coordinates are opposites, the segment is vertical, and the distance between the points is 10 units.
Since the x-coordinates are opposites, the segment is horizontal, and the distance between the points is 12 units.
Since the y-coordinates are the same, the segment is vertical, and the distance between the points is 12 units.
Since the y-coordinates are the same, the segment is horizontal, and the distance between the points is 10 units.

The information about the points being vertices that make up a line to represent the side of a hexagon is irrelevant, as we are only looking for the distance of a line based on their x and y coordinates.

Look at the point's x and y coordinates:

First point:

x = -5, y = 6

Second point:

x = 5, y = 6

You'll notice that the y-coordinate for both points is the same (6 = 6). This means that the segment created by the points will be horizontal, since there is only movement on the x-axis if you trace the segment from point to point.

To find the distance between the two points, we'll only need to subtract the first point's x-coordinate from the second:

5 - (-5) = 5 + 5 = 10

The answer will be the following statement:

Since the y-coordinates are the same, the segment is horizontal, and the distance between the points is 10 units.

The midpoint of CD is M=(1, 2). One endpoint is C = (6, -2).
Zina [86]

Answer: Endpoint = (-4,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any endpoint use the formula \frac{x_1+x_2}{2} = Xmp    \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} =Ymp

\frac{6+x_2}{2} = 1          \frac{-2+y_2}{2} =2    

multiply each by 2  to simplify

\frac{6+x_2}{2*2} = 1*2 = {6+x_2}= 2    \frac{-2+y_2}{2*2} =2*2 = -2+y_2=4 take the equations and simplify

6+x_{2} = 2                          -2+y_{2} = 4  =  

-6       -6                          +2       +2

   x_{2} = -4                               y_{2} =  6

To check use the Midpoint formula

\frac{-4+6}{2} , \frac{6-2}{2}  = \frac{2}{2} , \frac{4}{2}  = (1,2)

How do you find the area of a triangle when given only the lengths of three sides?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Use Heron's formula; see below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Heron's formula.

Let the sides of the triangle have lengths a, b, and c.

s = \dfrac{a + b + c}{2}

area = \sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}

Example:

A triangle has side lengths 3, 4, and 5 units.

Find the area of the triangle.

s = \dfrac{a + b + c}{2}

s = \dfrac{3 + 4 + 5}{2}

s = 6

area = \sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}

area = \sqrt{6(6 - 3)(6 - 4)(6 - 5)}

area = \sqrt{6(3)(2)(1)}

area = \sqrt{36}

area = 6
