Question

For the line segment whose endpoints are A(0,0) and B(4, 3), find the x value for the point located

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between A and B is given by the Pythagorean Theorem:

$= \sqrt{(4-0)^{2}+(3-0)^{2}} = 5$

The angle of the line segment is:

$\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3-0}{4-0} \right)\\\\\theta \approx 36.870^{\circ}$

The x-coordinate of the point is:

$x = 0 + \frac{2}{3}\cdot (5) \cdot \cos 36.870^{\circ}\\\\x = 2.667$

x≅ 2.7
