In geometry, a hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle, the side opposite the right angle. The length of the hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.
<em>It is useful in different situations involving the need to find distance or the measure of an angle.</em>
Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the hypotenuse from right triangle sides. Take a square root of sum of squares: c = √(a² + b²)
Answer:
distance between points=13 units
Step-by-step explanation:
distance between points=
put
=(8,7) and
=(3,-5)
distance between points=
distance between points=
distance between points=
distance between points=
distance between points=13 units answer
9/5
If you choose two points you can find the equation change in y/change in x (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Using the first two points this looks like:
(49-22)/(25-10)=27/15=9/5
For question 1, the largest value would be 1 and the smallest value would be -1. A, B, and C are either all 1 or two is negative and one is positive, either way the number is 1 and it's opposite. 1^2 is 1, 1^3 is 1, 1^4 is 1. The product is 1. -1^2 is -1, -1^3 is -1, -1^4 is -1. The product is -1. Now the difference. 1 - (-1), which is 1 + 1, the answer is [D) 2]
