Length = √(y2-y1)² + (x2-x1)²
l = √(8-8)² + (7+3)²
l = √10²
l = 10
In short, Your Answer would be 10 units
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer is B. 12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC is a right triangle
AB and BC are the legs and AC is the hypotenuse.
The Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2 can be manipulated to solve for a and get 12.
Line through P(0, 5) and Q(-1, 8):
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (8 - 5) / (-1 - 0) = 3 / -1 = -3
line through R(3, 3) and S(5, -1):
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-1 - 3) / (5 - 3) = -4 / 2 = -2
Parallel lines have equal slopes. Since the two lines have different slopes, they are not parallel.
