Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints.<br> (4,2) and (7,6)

Tema [17]

Answer:

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

$M = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \: \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(4,2) and (7,6)

The midpoint is

$M = ( \frac{4 + 7}{2} \: , \: \frac{2 + 6}{2} ) \\ = ( \frac{11}{2} \: , \: \frac{8}{2} )$

We have the final answer as

$( \frac{11}{2} \: , \: 4)$

Hope this helps you

5. Given the following triangle side lengths, identify the triangle as acute, right or obtuse. Show your work.

Roman55 [17]

Refer to the figure shown below.
We shall review each of the three given measurements and decide what type of triangle we have.

Measurement a.
a=3, b=4, c=5.
For a right triangle, c² = a² + b² (Pythagorean theorem)
a² + b² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25
c² = 5² = 25
Answer:
This is a right triangle, because c² = a² + b².

Measurement b.
a=5, b=6, c=7.
For an acute triangle, c² < a² + b².
a² + b² = 5² + 6² = 25 + 36 = 61
c² = 7² = 49
Answer:
This is an acute triangle, because c² < a² + b².

Measurement c.
a=8, b=9, c=12.
For an obtuse triangle, c² > a² + b².
a² + b² = 8² + 9² = 64 + 81 = 145
c² = 12² = 144
Answer:
This is an acute triangle because c² < a² + b².
