Answer: The distance is sqrt(40).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
(Look at the image I attached)
Let's set a = 2 and b = 6. The mystery side is c, which is opposite to the right angle that is formed when you draw perpendicular lines from each of the points.
(2)^2 + (6)^2 = c^2 <--- First, we need to simplify
4 + 36 = c^2
40 = c^2 <--- Now, we need to take the square root of both sides.
c = sqrt(40)
So, the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2) is sqrt(40). I recommend looking at some videos on Khan Academy if you need more help! Let me know if you want me to attach a link that you can visit.
Answer:
Micaela is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
s+2=m
(s+2+4)+(s+4)=40
(s+6)+(s+4)=40
2s+10=40
40-10=30
2s=30
30/2= 15
s=15
{s+2=m}
15+2=m
m=17
8/2 = 4
answer: it will take Carlos 4 hours to walk 8 miles
Answer:
Therefore a= 90°,b=54°, x=54°, y= 162°
Step-by-step explanation:
a=90°
a:b=5:3
5+3= 8
5/8 x A = 90
A is the sum of the angles of a and b divided in the ratio 5:3
5A/8 = 90
cross multiply
5A= 90 X8 = 720
5A=720
A= 720/5= 144°
b= 3/8 x 144 = 3x144/8 = 432/8 = 54
a= 90
b= 54
x:y is in the ratio of 1:3
the Sum of angles in a Quadrilateral is 360°
if the sum of a and b is 144°
then the reamining angles is 360-144= 216°
then x:y=1:3
1+3=4
x= 1/4 x 216= 54°
y= 3/4 x 216= 162°
Therefore a= 90°,b=54°, x=54°, y= 162°
we can see that b = x = 54°
