Answer:

Choice B: BD/DA = CE/EA

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is rise over run. For the two slopes to be equal, the rise over run of the two triangles must be equal.

The rise over run for triangle ABD is BD/DA.

The rise over run of triangle ACE is CE/EA.

For the slopes to be equal, BD/DA = CE/EA

Answer: Choice B.

A. Our diagram have six location: my house (2,1), a movie theater (5,3), the school (6,6), the police station (3,-2), the airport (-3,3), and the mall (-2,-3)

B. Distance between my house and the movie theater:
To calculate the distance we are going to use the points (2,1) and (5,3) to create a right triangle with tow legs of measures 3 and 2; the hypotenuse of the right triangle will be the distance between my house and the movie theater.
Using the Pythagorean theorem:
$d^2=3^2+2^2$
$d^2=9+4$
$d^2=13$
$d= \sqrt{13}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the movie theater is $\sqrt{13}$

Our second distance is the distance between the police station and the airport:
This time we are using the points (3,-2) and (-3,3) to create a right triangle with legs of measures 6 and 5; the hypotenuse of our triangle will be the the distance between our points:
$d^2=6^2+5^2$
$d^2=36+25$
$d^2=61$
$d= \sqrt{61}$
We can conclude that the distance between the police station and the airport is $\sqrt{61}$

C. Distance form the park to the Fire Station:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance from the park to the Fire Station is $\sqrt{10}$

Distance from the stadium to the mall:
$d^2=2^2+1^2$
$d^2=4+1$
$d^2=5$
$d= \sqrt{5}$
We can conclude that the distance from the stadium to the mall is $\sqrt{5}$

D. What is the distance between your house and the mall?
Answer:
$d^2=4^2+4^2$
$d^2=16+16$
$d^2=32$
$d= \sqrt{32}$
$d=4 \sqrt{2}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the mall is $4 \sqrt{2}$

What is the distance between the movie theater and the school?
answer:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance between the movie theater and the school is $\sqrt{10}$
