Find the length of each side of the triangle determined by the three points P1,P2, and P3. State whether the triangle is an isos

Tanya [424]

Answer:

The triangle is both an Isosceles triangle and a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertices of a triangle.

$P_{1} = (- 1, 4)$

$P_{2} = (6, 2)$ and

$P_{3} = (4, - 5)$

We find the distance between all the points to determine the length of each side of the triangle.

Distance between any two points, say, $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is:

$\sqrt{\bigg ( \textbf{x}_{\textbf{2}} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{- x}_{\textbf{1}} \bigg )^{\textbf{2}} \textbf{+} \bigg( \textbf{y}_{\textbf{2}} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{- y}_{\textbf{1}} \bigg)^ {\textbf{2}}$

Length between $P_1$ and $P_{2}$ , (Side 1) :

$(x_1, y_1) = (- 1, 4)$ and

$(x_2, y_2) = (6, 2)$

Distance = $\sqrt{\bigg(6 - (-1) \bigg)^{2} \hspace{1mm} + \hspace{1mm} \bigg( 2 - 4 \bigg )^2$

$= \sqrt{7^2 + 2^2}$

$= \sqrt{49 + 4}$

$= \sqrt{\textbf{53}}$

Length of Side 1 = $\sqrt{\textbf{53}}$ units.

Distance between $P_1$ and $P_2$ , (Side 2):

$(x_1, y_1) = (-1, 4)$

$(x_2, y_2) = (4, - 5)$

Distance = $\sqrt{ \bigg( 4 + 1 \bigg)^2 \hspace{1mm} + \bigg( - 5 - 4 \bigg ) ^2$

$= \sqrt{ 25 + 81 }$

$= \sqrt{\textbf{106}}$

Length of Side 2 = $\sqrt{\textbf{106}}$ units.

Distance between $P_2$ and $P_3$ , Side 3 :

$(x_1, y_1) = (4, 5)$

$(x_2, y_2) = (6, 2)$

Distance = $\sqrt{ 2^2 \hspace{1mm} + \hspace{1mm} 7^2}$

$= \sqrt{49 + 4}$

$= \sqrt{\textbf{53}$

Length of Side 3 = $\sqrt{\textbf{53}}$ units.

Note that the length of Side 1 = Length of Side 3.

That means the triangle is Isosceles.

Also, For a triangle to be right angle triangle, using Pythagoras theorem we have:

(Side 1)² + (Side 3)² = (Side 2)²

$\bigg( \sqrt{53} \bigg )^2 \hspace{1mm} + \hspace{1mm} \bigg( \sqrt{53} \bigg)^2 \hspace{1mm} = \hspace{1mm} \bigg ( \sqrt{106} \bigg ) ^2$

i.e, 53 + 53 = 106

Hence, the triangle is a right - angled triangle as well.

The tortoise and the hare are in a road race to defend the honor of their breed. the tortoise crawls the entire 1000. m distance

jolli1 [7]

<span>The tortoise crawls the whole 1000 m at 0.2 m/s, therefore, you must divide the distance by the rate of travel to find the time it took to complete the race. This gives us a time of 5,000 seconds to crawl the thousand meters. The hare runs the first 200 meters at 2 m/s, meaning that takes 100 seconds. The last 800 meters divided by the speed of 3 m/s gives us a time of 266 seconds. These two numbers must be added to the hare's rest time, converted from 1.3 hours into seconds by multiplying that number by 60 (for minutes in an hour) then 60 again (for seconds in a minute). 1.3 hours is equal to 4680 seconds. Therefore, the whole race took the hare 5,046 seconds, making it slightly slower than the hare, who finished in 5,000 seconds flat.</span>

ben earns $9 per hour and $6 for each deilvery he makes.he wants to earn more than $155 in an 8-hour workday.what is the least n

barxatty [35]

So in a 8 hour workday he would make $72... 9x8=72
now 155-72= 83
83/6= a little over 13
so he would at least have to make 14 deliveries
