What is the approximate length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with vertices (-6, 2),

Mathematics
1 answer:
muminat3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A(-6, 2),   B(6,-3) and C(-6, -3)

AB² =  (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

      = ( 6 -[-6])² + ( -3 -2)²

      = ( 6 + 6)² + ( -3 -2)² = 12²  + (-5)²  = 144 + 25 =169

AB = √169 = 13 units

BC²  = ( -6 -6)²  + ( -3 - [-3])² = (-6-6)²  + (-3 +3)²

      = (-12)²  + 0  = 144

BC = √144 = 12 unis

CA²  = (-6 - [-6])²  +(-3-2)²  = (-6 + 6)²  + ( -3-2)²

         = 0 + (-5)²  = 25

CA =√25 = 5 units

length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle  = 13units

A line that passes through (-1, 6) and the origin
zmey [24]

Answer: The equation is y = -6*x

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose that we want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (-1, 6) and the origin (remember that the origin is the point (0,0))

A general linear equation is written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the slope of the line is equal to:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Now we know that our line passes through the points (0, 0) and (-1, 6), then the slope is:

a = (6 - 0)/(-1 - 0) = 6/-1 = -6

Then our equation is something like:

y = -6*x + b

To find the value of b we can use the fact that this line passes through the point (0, 0).

This means that when x = 0, y is also equal to zero.

If we replace these values in the equation we get:

0 = -6*0 + b

0 = b

Then our equation is:

y = -6*x
