Question

Right triangle ABC is on a coordinate plane. Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long.Point C is on the line x = -1. If the area of AABC is 6 square units,
then find a possible y-coordinate of point
05
06
07
08

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2( base times height)

since the height is perpendicular to the base

therefore

6 = 1/2(3) h

12 =3h

4=h

4 units away from the y=2 line is at the y coordinate of 6
