Answer:
Bryce is closer to the <u>roller coaster</u> as compared to the water ride.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Bryce is at point (2,3)
Roller coaster is at point (7,8)
Water ride is at point (9,1)
To find whether Bryce is closer to roller coaster or the water ride.
Solution.
In order to determine the closeness of Bryce from either of the two rides, we will need to find the distance of Bryce from each of them. We can apply distance formula in order to do so.
By distance formula to find distance between two points and
.
Distance between Bryce (2,3) and roller coaster (7,8) can be given as:
units
Distance between Bryce (2,3) and water ride (9,1) can be given as:
units
Thus, we can see that Bryce is closer to the roller coaster as compared to the water ride.
Hey there!
I attached an image to make this a lot easier to understand.
I split up the rectangle into four triangles and one rectangle. We are going to find the area of each one individually then add them together.
Also note that there are two pairs of congruent triangles so they will have the same area.
The top and bottom triangles have heights of 2 and lengths of 5. This means their areas are each 5.
The left and right triangles have heights of 6 and lengths of 3. This means their areas are each 9.
The rectangle has a height of 6 and a length of 2. This means its area is 12.
Now we can add together all the areas of the individual pieces.
5 + 5 + 9 + 9 + 12 = 40
So the area is 40 square units.
Hope this helps!
