Answer:

9.434 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

points (5,4) and (-3,-1)

x1= 5

y1= 4

x2= -3

y2= -1

The expression for the distance between two points is

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

substitute

d=√((-3-5)²+(-1-4)²)

d=√((-8)²+(-5)²)

d=√64+25

d=√89

d=9.4339

d= 9.434 units

Hence the distance between the points is 9.434 units

One angle be x

other is 2x-6

ATQ

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x+2x-6=90$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x-6=90$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=96$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=32$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x-6=2(32)-6=58°$

Azizah got 1 for the slope of the line through 2 points (1,2) and (4,-1). Explain to her the mistake she made and how to find th

ololo11 [35]

(1,2)(4,-1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-1 - 2) / (4 - 1) = -3/3 = -1

the slope is -1......I am not sure of the mistake.....unless she just added (-1 - 2) and got 3 instead of -3.......or when dividing -3/3....she maybe forgot about the negative sign
