You want to put a fence around your large yard. There are two companies that you have found to do the work. They have each given

you a quote for how much the work will cost. Of course, you want to find out which company will be the cheapest. The boundary of your yard is determined by five trees. The lines connecting them form the edge of your property. Shown below are the descriptions for the positions of the trees relative to your house.
TREE Position (relative to your house)
1 100 ft. east 2 40 ft east, 80 ft south 3 40 ft west, 120 ft south 4 90 ft west, 60 ft north 5 20 ft east, 110 ft north
STEP 1: On graph paper, mark the position of each of the trees on your land. Let each block of the graph paper represent a 10-foot by 10-foot square. Using a straightedge, connect Tree 1 to Tree 2, Tree 2 to Tree 3, Tree 3 to Tree 4, and so on.
STEP 2: Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of each side of your property. Round
each answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.
STEP 3: Determine the perimeter of your property by adding up all of the sides.
STEP 4: Company 1 says that they will complete the job for $12 per foot of fencing. Company 2
says that they will charge you $250 for the first 100 feet of fencing and $15 for each additional foot. Determine the cost of fencing for both companies.

can you please tell me how did you break line of segment using Pythagoras theorem? ASAP please Its due in 5 hours from now.
thanks

This problem can be readily solved if we are familiar with the point-slope form of straight lines:
y-y0=m(x-x0) ...................................(1)
where 
m=slope of line
(x0,y0) is a point through which the line passes.

We know that the line passes through A(3,-6), B(1,2)

All options have a slope of -4, so that should not be a problem.  In fact, if we check the slope=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa), we do find that the slope m=-4.

So we can check which line passes through which point:

a. y+6=-4(x-3)
Rearrange to the form of equation (1) above,
y-(-6)=-4(x-3)  means that line passes through A(3,-6) => ok

b. y-1=-4(x-2) means line passes through (2,1), which is neither A nor B
   ****** this equation is not the line passing through A & B *****

c. y=-4x+6  subtract 2 from both sides (to make the y-coordinate 2)
   y-2 = -4x+4, rearrange
   y-2 = -4(x-1)  
   which means that it passes through B(1,2), so ok

d. y-2=-4(x-1)
   this is the same as the previous equation, so it passes through B(1,2), 
   this equation is ok.

Answer: the equation y-1=-4(x-2) does NOT pass through both A and B.
