We have a line passing through 3 points. We can use the first
two points to find the equation of the line.
(6,3), (8,4)
slope m = (4-3)/(8-6) = 1/2
We can use the point slope form y-y1 = m(x-x1) or
the slope intercept form y = mx + b
to find the equation of the line.
Let's take the point (6,3) and use y = mx + b to find b
y = 3, x = 6, m = 1/2
3 = (1/2)(6) + b
3 = 3 + b
0 = b
The equation of our line is y = (1/2)x
We have a line of equation y = (1/2)x going through point (n,-2)
Plugging in we have: -2 = (1/2)n
2(-2) = n
-4 = n
Your answer is n = -4
NOTE: looking at the 3 points as given initially: (6,3), (8,4), (n,-2)
We can see that 3 = (1/2)6 and 4 = (1/2)8 so -2 = (1/2)n makes sense
Hope this helps you :)
By definition, an isosceles triangle has 2 of the 3 sides with the same length. From this, we already know that the third side must be or 5 or 12.
We also know that, for every triangle, the sum of two sides must be always bigger than the third side, for any combination.
From this second affirmation, we know that the third side can not be 5, because:
From this, we conclude that the third side of an isosceles triangle with sides equal to 5 and 12 is equal to 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
start at -2 on the y axis and go up 1 to the right 3 and so on
