What is the distance from (6, -8) to the origin?

1 answer:

7 0

You have to use Pythagoras' theorem for this!

The triangle formed is 6 units across, and 8 units down, which means we can form an equation like this:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + 8^2 = c^2
36 + 64 = c^2
100 = c^2
c = 10.

The answer is 10 :)

Name the property of equality that justifies the statement: if p=q, then q=p

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer : - Symmetric property of equality tells that for all real numbers p and q, if p=q then q=p which means if we interchange the sides of an equation then the equation is still a true statement .

For example :-

1. We know that 4+5 =9 then by symmetric property we can also say that 9=4+5.

2. If 5x+5=7 then by symmetric property of inequality 7=5x+5.
