What's the equation to find the midpoint of a right triangle?

1 answer:

8 0

The answer is 20. You have to use the Pythagorean theorem (A^2+B^2=C^2) to find the length of the hypotenuse.

32^2+24^2=C^2
1024+576=C^2
1600=C^2
Take the square root of both sides
40=C
Since the midpoint is the middle, you divide the length of the hypotenuse by 2 and get the answer (20)

Answer:

y=5(x-3)^2+2

Step-by-step explanation:

You plug the point into f(x)=a(x-3)^2+2... that already has already been solved for the vertex that you want. Then you swap it out for the solution you have solved for.
