Answer:
the answer is Y=(6/17)X + (285/17)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Identify the X and Y coordinate of each point.
for example, the first point could be (12,21), therefore X1 = 12 and Y1 = 21 and the second point is then (46,33), therefore X2 = 46 and Y2 = 33
2. to find the equation of the line it is necessary to find the slope.
knowing that the equiation of the slope is M = Y2-Y1/X2-X1 we replace
and then we simplify the result to
3. Using the Point-slope equation which is Y-Y1=M(X-X1) we replace
A picture can help.
The median to the long side divides the isosceles triangle into two right triangles with hypotenuse 10 and short leg 6. Thus the long leg (median of interest) is found by the Pythagorean theorem to be
... √(10² -6²) = √64 = 8
Then the midpoint of the short side is found to be 6 + (6/2) = 9 units to the side and 8/2 = 4 units above the opposite vertex. Hence the square of the length of that median is 9² + 4² = 97.
The sum of squares of interest is
... 8² + 2×97 = 258
