AABC has vertices at A(1, -9), B(8,0), and C(9,-8).
Rainbow [258]

Check the picture below.

~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{\large distance between 2 points}}{d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}}~\hfill~ \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-9})\qquad B(\stackrel{x_2}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0}) ~\hfill AB=\sqrt{[ 8- 1]^2 + [ 0- (-9)]^2} \\\\\\ AB=\sqrt{7^2+(0+9)^2}\implies AB=\sqrt{7^2+9^2}\implies \boxed{AB=\sqrt{130}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

B(\stackrel{x_1}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad C(\stackrel{x_2}{9}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-8}) ~\hfill BC=\sqrt{[ 9- 8]^2 + [ -8- 0]^2} \\\\\\ BC=\sqrt{1^2+(-8)^2}\implies \boxed{BC=\sqrt{65}}

now, we could check for the CA distance, however, we already know that AB ≠ BC, so there's no need.

Which side lengths form a right triangle?<br> Choose all answers that apply:
kkurt [141]

Answer:

All 3 are right triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle c^2 = a^2 + b^2   where c is the longest side.  ( by Pythagoras).

a) 3^2 = 9, 6^2 = 36 and √27 ^ 2 = 27

36 = 9 + 27

So this is a right triangle.

b)

17^2 = 289, 15^2 = 225 and 8^2 = 64

289 = 225 + 64

Also right triangle.

c) √50 ^ 2 = 50, 5^2 = 25 and 5^2 = 25

So also right triangle.

X + 25/-8 = -6 Solve for x.<br> Simplify your answer as much as possible.
balandron [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is nothing missing, we have

x + 25/-8 = -6

in order to compare or add or subtract fractions, we need to bring them all to the same denominator (bottom part).

remember, integer numbers are fractions too. like here

-6 = -6/1

25/-8 = -25/8

so, how can we bring -6/1 to .../8 ?

by multiplying 1 by 8.

but we cannot multiply only the denominator by 8. otherwise we would suddenly have

-6/8

and is -6/8 = -6/1 ? no, certainly not.

to keep the original value of the fraction we have to do the same multiplication also with the numerator (top part).

so, we actually do

-6/1 × 8/8 = -48/8

with this little trick we have now .../8 to operate with, and our transformed fraction has still the same value

-6/1 = -48/8 indeed.

so, we have

x + -25/8 = -48/8

x - 25/8 = -48/8

x = -48/8 + 25/8 = -23/8
