Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the distance between two points, you square the difference of the x-values and square the difference of the y-values, add them, and then you square root it!

First, we'll add our two x-values.

-6-0= -6

We square it, which means to multiply it by itself.

-6(-6)=36 (If you multiply an even number of negative numbers, your answer is positive. Since we have two negative numbers, we get positive 36)

Now, we do the same with the y-values.

-2-(-1)=-1 (two negatives make it a plus, as in minus minus 1 is plus one.)

We square it.

-1(-1)=1

Now, we add these x and y value differences.

36+1=37

Now, we find the square root using a calculator.

√37≈6.08

Have a wonderful day!

Choose the congruence theorem that you would use to prove the triangles congruent.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

SAS

Explanation:

Before solving the problem, let's define each of the given theorems:

1- SSS (side-side-side): This theorem is valid when the three sides of the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding three sides in the second triangle

2- SAS (side-angle-side): This theorem is valid when two sides and the included angle between them in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding two sides and the included angle between them in the second triangle

3- ASA (angle-side-angle): This theorem is valid when two angles and the included side between them in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and the included side between them in the second triangle

4- AAS (angle-angle-side): This theorem is valid when two angles and a side that is not included between them in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and a side that is not included between them in the second triangle

Now, let's check the given triangles:

We can note that the two sides and the included angle between them in the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding two sides and the included angle between them in the second triangle

This means that the two triangles are congruent by SAS theorem

Hope this helps :)

3. A jet traveled at an average speed of 681 kilometers an hour. At that rate, how far did the jet go in 7 1/4 hours?

The sequence an = one third(3)n − 1 is graphed below: coordinate plane showing the points 2, 1; 3, 3; and 4, 9 Find the average

Maru [420]

The given sequence is:

$a(n)= \frac{1}{3} (3)^{n-1}$

a(2)=1
a(3)=3
a(4)=9

We are to find the average rate of change between n=3 and n=4 for the given function.

Average rate of change = $\frac{a(4)-a(3)}{4-3} = \frac{9-3}{1}=6$

So the average rate of change for the given function from n = 3 to n = 4 is 6
