Find the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arisa [49]3 years ago

Answer: The distance is sqrt(40).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

(Look at the image I attached)

Let's set a = 2 and b = 6. The mystery side is c, which is opposite to the right angle that is formed when you draw perpendicular lines from each of the points.

(2)^2 + (6)^2 = c^2 <--- First, we need to simplify

4 + 36 = c^2

40 = c^2 <--- Now, we need to take the square root of both sides.

c = sqrt(40)

So, the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2) is sqrt(40). I recommend looking at some videos on Khan Academy if you need more help! Let me know if you want me to attach a link that you can visit.

Answer:

Here,

Angle TUV + Angle NUV=TUV

By substituting the provided or given value ls in the question we obtain,

1+38x+66 Degree= 105x

1+66 Degree= 67x

67 Degree= 67x

1 Degree = x

x = 1 Degree

Therefore

Angle TUN=1+38x=39

Angle NUV=66 Degree

Therefore

1+38x+66 Degree= 105x

=39 Degree+66 Degree= 105 Degree

Therefore

Angle TUV=105 Degree
