A polygon has the following coordinates: A(3,1), B(5,3), C(2,5), D(-1,5), E(-4,3), F(-2,1). Find the length of DC.

To find the length of a line given two points, we are going to use the distance formula, which is defined below:
(
and 
are the two points)
The points in this problem are (2, 5) and (-1, 5). We can find the distance of DC by substituting these values into the distance formula and simplifying, as shown below:
- Substitute values into formula
- Combine like terms and then simplify
to 0
- Compute

The length of DC is 3.
First write both vectors in terms of their horizontal and vertical components.
G = (40.3 m)(cos(-35.0º) x + sin(-35.0º) y)
G = (33.0 x - 23.1 y) m
(where x and y are the unit vectors that point in the positive horizontal and vertical directions, respectively)
H = (63.3 m)(cos 270º x + sin 270º y)
H = (-63.3 y) m
Then the vector sum is
G + H = (33.0 x - 86.4 y) m
which has a magnitude of
|| G + H || = √[33.0^2 + (-86.4)^2] = 92.5 m
Answer:
(-, -)
Step-by-step explanation:
The x value is negative and the y value is also negative
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
The lines do not intersect
Discussion:
Where do the lines intersect?
5x + 4 = 5x - 3 => subtract 5x from both sides
4 = -3 => NO WAY! The lines do not intersect
Thank you,
