C(a,b), because the x-coordinate( first coordinate) is a (seeing as it is situated directly above point B, which also has an x-coordinate of a) and the y-coordinate ( second coordinate) is b (seeing as it is situated on the same horizontal level as point D, which also has a y-coordinate of b)
the length of AC can be calculated with the theorem of Pythagoras:
length AB = a - 0 = a
length BC = b - 0 = b
seeing as the length of AC is the longest, it can be calculated by the following formula:
It is called "Pythagoras' Theorem" and can be written in one short equation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^ means to the power of by the way)
in this case, A and B are lengths AB and BC, so lenght AC can be calculated as the following:
a^2 + b^2 = (length AC)^2
length AC = √(a^2 + b^2)
Extra information: Seeing as the shape of the drawn lines is a rectangle, lines AC and BD have to be the same length, so BD is also √(a^2 + b^2). But that is also stated in the assignment!
Answer: i think its a function
Step-by-step explanation:
So the points are (-3/7,-8/3) and (-5/2,-2)
to find the slope do
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x,y)
x1=-3/7
y1=-8/3
x2=-5/2
y2=-2
subsitute
simplify by finding similar denomenators
add
multiply top and bottom by
answer is
slope=
Start by factoring an x term out of the equation:
x(x-11)=0
Now, you can set each term equal to zero and solve for x:
x=0
x-11=0
x=11
x={0, 11}
Hope this helps!!
Distance formula= [(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2]^1/2
Origin= white house = (0,0)
Capitol= (2300,800)
Put the value,
(2300² + 800² )^1/2
= 2435 meters
Thus distance is 2435 m
