Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the triangle to be a right triangle there must be a pair adjacent sides which are at right angles to each other - that is whose slope product = -1.

Slope of AB = (4-2)/(-6- -3) = -2/3.

Slope of BC = (8-4)/ (1 - - 6) =  2/7

Slope of AC =  (8-2) / (1 - -3) = 6/4 = 3/2.

Now 3/2 * -2/3 = -1 so sides AB and AC are at right angles and the 3 points are the vertices of a right triangle.

Answer:

  5544 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation does not change the dimensions of the figure. The two figures together tell you the right triangle has a base of 154 units and a height of 72 units.

The area of a triangle is given by ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(154 units)(72 units) = 5544 square units

The areas of each of the triangles are 5544 square units.

Mieko said that the difference between the longest rose and the shortest rose is 1 inch. Is she correct?
erastova [34]

Answer:

Mieko is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

The length difference

Lengths with dot(s) means, there is at least 1 rose flower of that length.

So, from the attachment, we have:

Longest = 14.0

Shortest = 13.0

The difference (d) is:

d = Longest - Shortest

This gives:

d = 14.0 - 13.0

d = 1\ in

<em>Hence, Mieko is correct</em>

(x+y)(x+6y) pls help me solve question pls and pls also give explanation if possible
steposvetlana [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

= (x + y)(x + 6y)

= x \times x + x \times 6y + y \times x + y \times 6y

=  {x}^{2}  + 6xy + xy + 6 {y}^{2}

=  {x}^{2}  + 7xy + 6 {y}^{2}
