Answer:

(5, 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 points (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

[ 0.5(x₁ + x₂ ), 0.5(y₁ + y₂ ) ]

here (x₁, y₁ ) = U(8, 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = V(2, 5), thus

midpoint = [0.5(8 + 2), 0.5(9 + 5) ] = [0.5(10), 0.5(14) ] = (5, 7 )

For question 3, use the Pythagorean Theorem.

Juliette [100K]

Step-by-step explanation:

can't really use the Pythagorean because you don't know this is a right triangle.

use the fact that they are similar

3/6 = x/12 where x is FE

cross multiply

6x = 36 therefore FE = 6

then 6/12 = y/9 where y is FD

cross multiply

12y = 54 = 54/12 therefore FD = 4.5
