Since this is an obtuse triangle, Point O is not equidistant from A, B, and C. Point O is not on the perpendicular bisectors, so the third statement is true. Point O is equidistant from AB, BC, and CA because these lines are pressed against the circpe in a mannered way.

Given that the points (-1, 5) and (2, 1) are vertices of a rectangle with sides parallel to the axes, how much longer is the len

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Correct choice is A

Step-by-step explanation:

Two vertices of the rectangle have coordinates A(-1, 5) and B(2, 1). If rectangle sides are parallel to the axes, then two remaining vertices have coordinates C(-1,1) and D(2,5) (see attached diagram for details).

Find the length and the width:

$AC=\sqrt{(-1-(-1))^2+(5-1)^2}=4\ units,\\ \\AD=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^2+(5-5)^2}=3\ units.$

Then the length is 1 unit longer than the width.
