The length of the new line, between the given point and the newly-found intersection point, is the distance between the point and the original line. To find the distance, subtract the x and y values to get the x and y displacements. Therefore, there is no specific equation!

The minimum distance from the point to the line would be found by drawing a segment perpendicular to the line directly to the point. Our first step is to find the equation of the new line that connects the point to the line given in the problem. Because we know this new line is perpendicular to the line we're finding the distance

Triangle ABC has a perimeter of 22cm
Bumek [7]

Answer:

triangle ABC is "not" a right-angled triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

AB=8cm

BC=5cm

perimeter = 22cm

CA = 22 - 8 - 5 = 9

8² + 5² = 89

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

7.55 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance of descent = 1.5 miles

New elevation point after descent = 6.05 miles

The initial elevation of the plane before descent will be :

New elevation point after descent + Distance of descent

(6.05 miles + 1.5 miles)

= 7.55 miles
