Diagonals that bisect each other are perpendicular and form a right angle.
AEB is a right triangle.
We can apply the Pythagorean theorem:
c^2 = a^2+b^2
Where c is the hypotenuse (longest side) and a and b the other 2 legs.
Replacing:
AB^2 = AE^2+BE^2
AB^2 = 5^2+12^2
AB^2 = 25+144
AB^2 = 169
AB=√169 = 13
Lenght of AB= 13
Answer:
A: -16/3
B: 16/3
C: -6
D: -6
E: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
A would be -16/3 because you multiply -2 time 8 which is 116. And the denominator is 3.
B would be 16/3. It is the same as problem A but there are two negatives which make positive.
C is -6. You just divide -18/3.
D is the exact same as C. It just has parenthesis but the answer is still -6.
E is 6 because there are two negatives which make a positive.
I wanna say its b)1 but im not 100% sure. if its wrong im sorry
