Answer:

The answer to your question is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-3, -1)

B (-3 , 5)

length of a side = 8 units

Process

1.- Calculate the distance between A and B

dAB = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}

x1 = -3     y1 = -1

x2 = -3    y2 = 5

-Substitution

dAB = \sqrt{(-3 + 3)^{2}+ (5 + 1)^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{0^{2} + 6^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{36}

dAB = 6 u

2.- Calculate the diagonal using the Pythagorean theorem.

    c² = a² + b²

    c² = 6² + 8²

    c² = 36 + 64

    c² = 100

    c = 10 units

- Conclusion

The diagonal of the rectangle measures 10 units

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Choice B     (  (x+6)/5) )



Discussion:

y =  f(x) =  5x - 6

To solve for the inverse of f, replace "y" by "x" and "x" by "y" in the original equation. That is, solve for "y" in

x = 5y -6    =>                  add 6 to both sides

x + 6 =  5y  =>                 divide both sides by 5

y =  (x+6)/5

"y" above is the inverse, which is Choice B



Thank you,

MrB

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Diameter of the circle is 8\sqrt{2} units

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the vertices of the square fall on the circle.

So, the diagonal of the square is the diameter of the circle.

Also, the diagonal and the two sides of the square form a right angled triangle.

By Pythogoras theorem,

hypotenuse^{2} =side^{2} +side^{2}

= 8^{2} +8^{2}

= 2(8^{2} )

hypotenuse=8\sqrt{2} units

Hence, the diameter of the circle is 8\sqrt{2} units
