Find the orthocenter of the triangle with the given vertices: L(2, 2), M(-4, 2), N(-2, 6) a (-2, 4) b (3, -5) c (2, -4) d (-3, 5
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(a) (-2, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The orthocenter is the point of concurrence of the altitudes of the triangle.
A plot of the triangle vertices shows the triangle to be acute. That means the orthocenter is inside. This eliminates choices B, C, D, which are all points outside the triangle.

Conveniently, side LM is horizontal. This means the orthocenter will have the x-coordinate of the vertical line through N, which is -2. Only one answer choice has an x-coordinate of -2:
a (-2, 4)

Answer:
z = 30.45 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume (V) of a triangular prism is calculated as
V = area of triangular end (A) × length
Here V = 913.5 and length = 15, thus
A × 15 = 913.5 ( divide both sides by 15 )
A = 60.9 ft²
The area of the triangle = bh ( b is the base and h the height ), thus
× 4 × z = 60.9
2z = 60.9 ( divide both sides by 2 )
z = 30.45
i don't know how to type the answer out but it's on the work i just did ⬆️
