6. Describe, step-by-step how to find the slope of a line through two points.

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the difference in y-coordinates of the 2 points divided by the corresponding difference in x-coordinates.

For example:

Find the slope of the line joining the points (3, 5) and (-2, 1)

The slope = (5 - 1) / (3 - (-2))

= 4/(3+2)

= 4/5.

NOTE:

You would get the same result if you reversed the values

- that is (1 - 5)/(-2 - 3

= -4/-5

= 4/5.

The important thing to remember is to use <em>corresponding </em>values in the calculation.

Answer:

58 = <1

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the opposite interior angles of a triangle is equal to the exterior angle

101 = 43+ <1

Subtract 43 from each side

101- 43 = <1

58 = <1

How do I know when I need to use SSS or SAS in geometry? I'm having a lot of trouble understanding the difference and when to us
Pavel [41]
SSS = Side-Side-Side
If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.


SAS  = Side-Angle-Side
If two sides and the included angle are equal to the corresponding parts of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.'
The angle must be formed by the two pairs of congruent, corresponding sides of the triangles. If the angles are not formed by the two sides that are congruent and corresponding to the other triangle's parts then you cannot use the SAS postulate.

you will notice that the main difference between the two postulates is that the SAS consists of an angle and the SSS does not.

hope this helps :)
