Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This will be solved using distance formula between two coordinates.

The distance formula between two coordinates is given as;

d =

Point T has coordinate of T(80,20)

Distance to Point U(20,60) is;

TU =

TU =

TU ≈ 72 Units

Distance From Point U(20,60) to Point V(110,85);

UV =

UV =

UV ≈ 93 units

I didn't bother to calculate TV because we are looking for shortest distance for the trip and by inspection if he goes from T to V first before Point U, it will be a longer journey.

Thus, shortest distance = TU + UV

shortest distance = 72 + 93 = 165 units

Direction: True or False
Goshia [24]

Answer:

<u>False </u>Any three points are always coplanar

<u>False </u>Two points are always collinear

<u>False </u>Two planes intersect at a point

Read explanations, as the answer to these questions, is subjective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of coplanar is; figures that exist on the same plane. Any three points might not always be colinear, as some points might exist on one plane, but other points could exist on other planes. To visualize this phenomenon, refer to the attached image. Two points could be on the red plane, but the third could be on the green. Therefore, while there are three points, not all of them exist on the same plane. However, another plane can be constructed to connect these points, bear in mind certain problems might specifically indicate that three points are not coplanar, therefore, the answer is false.

The definition of collinear is existing on the same line. This statement is a little subject, it can be both true and false depending on the way one looks at it. A line can be drawn to connect any two points, one only needs two points to determine a line. So technically two points are always collinear. However, it also depends on the circumstance. Certain geometry problems might specifically indicate that two points are not collinear. Thus, it really depends on the context. Therefore, the answer is technically false.

Two planes usually intersect on a line. To understand this, please refer to the image attached. Tehcnailly, if a corner of one plane intersects another, then one can state that the plane intersects on a point, but typically, planes intersect on lines. Therefore, technically the answer to this problem is false, as two planes usually intersect on a line.

Draw an equilateral triangle of perimeter 10 centimetres.​
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

See attachment for triangle

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Equilateral triangle

Perimeter = 10cm

Required

Draw the triangle

First, we determine the side lengths.

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is:

Perimeter = 3 * Length

So, we have:

10= 3 * Length

Solve for Length

Length = \frac{10}{3}

Length = 3.33

Is there are 4 more girls than boys in ms. Raubs class of 28 students what is the ratio of girls to boys
Viefleur [7K]
The ratio of girls to boys would be  16:12 because if you divide 28 by 2 you get 14. subtract 2 to on one of them and add the two to the other. You get 12 and 16. There is a difference of 4 to them and when you add them together you get 28. :)
