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

Mathematics

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.

In triangle △ABC, ∠C is a right angle and CD is the altitude to AB. Find the angles in △CBD and △CAD if m∠A = 65°
adell [148]

Simple drawing shows that measure interior angle at B is 25 degrees.

Easily seen from a drawing are that measure of angle CBD is 25 degrees, and measure of angle CAD is 65 degrees (which was already given).

Heres the plot formula!

The coefficient of 8.2 N is<br> 8<br> 2<br> 16
Aliun [14]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

A coefficient is the number placed before the variable. The variable gets multiplied by the coefficient.

The format is not exactly clear with the expression in the question.

Assuming the expression is '8 * 2n', the coefficient would be 2.

'n' is getting multiplied by '2'.

'8' does not have a variable next to it, so it is just a term in the expression.

The product of 8 and 2 is 16. 16 is not in the expression.

If the expression was '8.2n', 8.2 would be the coefficient.
