Answer:

The answer is the option B

The circumcenter of triangle ABC is the point (3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumcenter of a triangle, is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle meets

In this problem we have the coordinates of the triangle ABC

A(1,6) ,B(1,4),C(5,4)

Step 1

Find the slope of the side AB

The side AB is a vertical side (parallel to the y-axis)

The slope of the side AB is undefined

we know that

The perpendicular line to the side AB will be a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side AB will be the y-coordinate of the midpoint AB

Step 2

Find the y-coordinate of midpoint AB

we know that

The formula to calculate the y-coordinate of the midpoint between two points is equal to

y=\frac{y1+y2}{2}

we have

A(1,6) ,B(1,4)

Substitute the values

y=\frac{6+4}{2}=5

therefore

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side AB is

y=5 ------> equation A

Step 3

Find the slope of the side BC

The side BC is a horizontal side (parallel to the x-axis)

The slope of the side BC is zero

we know that

The perpendicular line to the side BC will be a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side BC will be the x-coordinate of the midpoint BC

Step 4

Find the x-coordinate of midpoint BC

we know that

The formula to calculate the x-coordinate of the midpoint between two points is equal to

x=\frac{x1+x2}{2}

we have

B(1,4),C(5,4)

Substitute the values

x=\frac{1+5}{2}=3

therefore

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side BC is

x=3 ------> equation B

Step 5

Find the circumcenter of triangle ABC

To calculate the circumcenter

Solve the system of equations compound by equation A and equation B

y=5 ------> equation A

x=3 ------> equation B

The intersection point is (3,5) -------> the circumcenter of triangle ABC

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

A 26-foot ladder is placed against a house and reaches the 24-foot roof. What is the distance between the base of the ladder and
hammer [34]

Answer:

The distance from the base of the ladder to the base of the house is 10ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can gather that the ladder makes a right angle shape with the wall of the house.

The length of this ladder which represents the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle is 26ft while the height of the house to the roof is 24ft

To calculate the distance between the base of the ladder and the base of the house, we shall be employing the use of Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square of the 2 other sides

We have established that the hypotenuse is the length of the ladder which is 26ft

Let the distance we want to calculate be d

26^2 = 24^2 + d^2

d^2 = 26^2 -24^2

d^2 = 676 - 576

d^2 = 100

d = square root of 100

d = 10ft
