\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-10})\qquad B(\stackrel{x_2}{x}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-4})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ 10=\sqrt{[x-(-6)]^2+[-4-(-10)]^2}\implies 10=\sqrt{(x+6)^2+(-4+10)^2} \\\\\\ 10^2=(x+6)^2+(6)^2\implies 100=x^2+12x+36+36 \\\\\\ 100=x^2+12x+72\implies 0=x^2+12x-28 \\\\\\ 0=(x+14)(x-2)\implies x= \begin{cases} -14\\ \boxed{2} \end{cases}


because B is on the IV Quadrant, the x-coordinate must be positive.

Lilit [14]
Hi there!

The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1/2(b x h). Using the information provided, all we have to do is plug in what we know and solve!

WORK:
74 = 1/2(b x 9.14)
148 = b x 9.14
b = 16.2 inches (approximately)

Hope this helps!! :)
