Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
L is the midpoint of KM. So, length of KL = length of LM
KL = LM = 14x
KL + LM = KM
14x + 14x = 26x + 14 {add the like terms}
28x = 26x + 14 {subtract 26x form both sides}
28x - 26x = 14
2x = 14 {divide both side by 2}
2x/2 = 14/2
x = 7
KL = 14x = 14*7
KL = 98
The Pythagorean equation relates the sides of a right triangle in a simple way, so that if the lengths of any two sides are known the length of the third side can be found. Another corollary of the theorem is that in any right triangle, the hypotenuse is greater than any one of the other sides, but less than their sum.
hope this helped:)
I'm sure it's only 15 miles :)
Hope that helps
Use the distance formula, AB=√[(1-(-9)]²+[(-1-(-3)]=√[100+4]=√104
use the same formula, AC=√52, BC=√52
AC²+BC²=52+52=104=AB²
Yes, it is a right triangle.
