Step-by-step explanation:

Given c = longest of triange = 15m

Given b = short side of triangle = 9m

By pythagoras' Theorem,

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} \\ {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2} \\ {a}^{2} + {(9)}^{2} = {(15)}^{2} \\ {a}^{2} + 81 = 225 \\ {a}^{2} = 225 - 81 \\ {a}^{2} = 144 \\ a = \sqrt{144} \\ = 12m$

Find the slope between the two points: (9,9) and (12,15)

grandymaker [24]

The slope formula is $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$ . For the two points, $(x,y)$ . You can pick any of the Y and X from these two points, but only once. $\frac{9-15}{9-12}$ = $\frac{-6}{-3}$ = 2 or $\frac{15-9}{12-9}$ = $\frac{6}{3}$ = 2 and both will equal to. The answer for the slope is 2.
