Find the area of triangle ABC with vertices A(2,1), B (12,2), C (12,8). Hence, or otherwise find the perpendicular distance from

Lapatulllka [165]

<h2>The area of a triangle is =54 square units</h2><h2>The perpendicular distance from B to AC is = $\frac{108}{\sqrt{149} } units$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a triangle ABC with vertices A(2,1),B(12,2) and C(12,8)

$x_1=2,y_1=1,x_2=12,y_2=2,x_3=12 and y_3=8$

The area of a triangle is= $\frac{1}{2} [x_1(y_2-y_3) +x_2 (y_3- y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)]$

= $|\frac{1}{2} [2(2-8+12(8-1)+12(1-2)]|$

= $|-54|$ = 54 square units

The length of AC = $\sqrt{(x_1-x_3)^{2} +(y_1-y_3)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(2-12)^{2} +(1-8)^2}$

= $\sqrt{149}$ units

Let the perpendicular distance from B to AC be = x

According To Problem

$\frac{1}{2} \times x \times \sqrt{149} = 54$

⇔ $x =\frac{108}{\sqrt{149} }$ units

Therefore the perpendicular distance from B to AC is = $\frac{108}{\sqrt{149} } units$

Twice a number plus twice a second number is 310. The difference between the numbers is 55

agasfer [191]

Answer:

x = 105

y = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, try writing it out as an equation/expression first.

When you do, you should get something like this:

2x + 2y = 310

x - y = 55

This is a system of equations. To solve this, we're going to multiply the second equation [x - y = 55] by 2.

2(x - y = 55) = 2x - 2y = 110

Now, subtract your new equation from the first one [2x + 2y = 310]

2x + 2y = 310

-2x + 2y = -110

//<em>If you</em>'<em>re wondering why I changed the signs of the new equation, I multiplied our new equation [2x - 2y = 110] by -1 since we're subtracting//</em>

When you're done subtracting, the "2x" and "-2x" cancel out, so you're left with:

4y = 200

Now, simply solve for "y" by dividing both sides by 4.

4y = 200

y = 50

Now that we know y's value, substitute it into one of our original equations to solve for x.

//<em>I'm gonna plug y into the second equation [x - y = 55] just because it's easier, but you can plug it into the first one as well and get the same answer//</em>

When we plug it in, we get:

x - (50) = 55

To solve for "x," we must get rid of "-50." To do this, add 50 to both sides.

x - 50 = 55

x = 105
