X+y+5=0
y=-x-5
If a solution exists y=y so we can say
x^2-9x+10=-x-5 add x+5 to both sides
x^2-8x+15=0 now factor
x^2-3x-5x+15=0
x(x-3)-5(x-3)
(x-5)(x-3) so x=3 and 5, using y=-x-5
y(3)=-8 and y(5)=-10
So the two solutions are:
(3,-8) and (5,-10)

Match each set of vertices with the type of triangle they form.

Andrew [12]

Answer: The calculations are done below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Let the vertices be A(2,0), B(3,2) and C(5,1). Then,

$AB=\sqrt{(2-3)^2+(0-2)^2}=\sqrt{5},\\\\BC=\sqrt{(3-5)^2+(2-1)^2}=\sqrt{5},\\\\CA=\sqrt{(5-2)^2+(1-0)^2}=\sqrt{10}.$

Since, AB = BC and AB² + BC² = CA², so triangle ABC here will be an isosceles right-angled triangle.

(ii) Let the vertices be A(4,2), B(6,2) and C(5,3.73). Then,

$AB=\sqrt{(4-6)^2+(2-2)^2}=\sqrt{4}=2,\\\\BC=\sqrt{(6-5)^2+(2-3.73)^2}=\sqrt{14.3729},\\\\CA=\sqrt{(5-4)^2+(3.73-2)^2}=\sqrt{14.3729}.$

Since, BC = CA, so the triangle ABC will be an isosceles triangle.

(iii) Let the vertices be A(-5,2), B(-4,4) and C(-2,2). Then,

$AB=\sqrt{(-5+4)^2+(2-4)^2}=\sqrt{5},\\\\BC=\sqrt{(-4+2)^2+(4-2)^2}=\sqrt{8},\\\\CA=\sqrt{(-2+5)^2+(2-2)^2}=\sqrt{9}.$

Since, AB ≠ BC ≠ CA, so this will be an acute scalene triangle, because all the angles are acute.

(iv) Let the vertices be A(-3,1), B(-3,4) and C(-1,1). Then,

$AB=\sqrt{(-3+3)^2+(1-4)^2}=\sqrt{9}=3,\\\\BC=\sqrt{(-3+1)^2+(4-1)^2}=\sqrt{13},\\\\CA=\sqrt{(-1+3)^2+(1-1)^2}=\sqrt 4.$

Since AB² + CA² = BC², so this will be a right angled triangle.

(v) Let the vertices be A(-4,2), B(-2,4) and C(-1,4). Then,

$AB=\sqrt{(-4+2)^2+(2-4)^2}=\sqrt{8},\\\\BC=\sqrt{(-2+1)^2+(4-4)^2}=\sqrt{1}=1,\\\\CA=\sqrt{(-1+4)^2+(4-2)^2}=\sqrt{13}.$

Since AB ≠ BC ≠ CA, and so this will be an obtuse scalene triangle, because one angle that is opposite to CA will be obtuse.

Thus, the match is done.
