How does the slope formula help you classify figures

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tomtit [17]3 years ago
8 0

Using the distance formula, you can determine the lengths of the sides of the shape.  This will help determine if triangles are equilateral, isosceles or scalene; or if quadrilaterals are squares, rectangles, rhombi, or isosceles trapezoids; or if other polygons are regular polygons.  The slope formula will tell help you determine if two sides are parallel.  In a quadrilateral, this will help you determine if the figure is a parallelogram or a trapezoid.

What is the solution to this system of linear equations?<br><br> x + y = 4<br><br> x − y = 6
Amiraneli [1.4K]
X+y = 4, therefore y = 4-x when you rearrange the equation.
You can subsitute this in: x-(4-x) = 6
-4+x = 6-x
x=10-x
2x = 10
x = 5
Substitute x into the previous equation:
5+y = 4
y = 4-5
y = -1

Write the equation in standard form for the circle passing through (2,6) centered at the origin.
Deffense [45]
<h3>Answer:  x^2 + y^2 = 40</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

The center is the origin, so (h,k) = (0,0).

The point (x,y) = (2,6) is on the circle's edge. We'll use these four values to find the value of r^2

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

(2-0)^2 + (6-0)^2 = r^2

2^2 + 6^2 = r^2

4 + 36 = r^2

40 = r^2

r^2 = 40

We don't need to solve for r itself. If you wanted to, you'd get the radius to be r = sqrt(40) = 2*sqrt(10) = 6.324555 approximately.

------------------

Since h = 0, k = 0, and r^2 = 40, we can say:

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

(x-0)^2 + (y-0)^2 = 40

x^2 + y^2 = 40
