Find the distance between the points ( - 9, - 12) and (18, - 12)

Mathematics
1 answer:
ANTONII [103]3 years ago

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

27



Discussion:

By the distance formula (or Pythagorean theorem)

distance =   sqrt ( (change in x)^2 + (change in y)^2)


In our case this becomes

distance =   sqrt (   (18 - (-9) )^2 + (-12 - ( -12))^2)

               =  sqrt (    ( 18 + 9) ^2   + ( -12 + 12) ^ 2)

               =  sqrt (  ( 18 + 9) ^2 + 0^2 )

               = sqrt ( 27^2)

               = 27

 

Geometrically, as both y coordinates = -12, the points define a horizontal line segment. The length is then simply the difference of the x coordinates, 18 - (-9) = 18 +9 = 27. Same answer as before



Thank you,

MrB

Range of values of x is 25°<x<27°.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

An angle is formed when two rays, a line with one endpoint, meet at one point called a vertex.Alternate interior angles are formed when a transversal passes through two lines. The angles that are formed on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two lines are alternate interior angles. The Alternate Interior Angles theorem states, if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of alternate interior angles are congruent.

In above question, sides are equal and so alternate interior angles are equal i.e. 2x + 10° = 62° ⇒ 2x = 52° ⇒ x =26°

∴ range of values of x is 25°<x<27°

Im confused, can someone help?
Bumek [7]
Well, the y-intercept is represented by B. So b would be the dot crossing the y-axis in each graph (which you already circled). Next, the slope for top left is: -1.5, top right is: -1.7, bottom left is: 3, and bottom right is: 1.33. I got those by using this very helpful website named Desmos. Now, I’m order to write the equation for each graph is very simple, all you have to do is put in the slope and y-intercept into the equation. For example, the top left one would be:
y = -1.5x + 4 since we know that the slope is equal to -1.5 and the y-intercept is equal to 4. Hope this helps :)
