Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0
(x - 2)(x + 5) = 0
x - 2 = 0 x + 5 = 0
x = 2 x = -5
smaller x = -5
larger x = 2
To construct a circle that circumscribes to a triangle, you would have to construct a circle that where all vertices of the triangle are on the circle. To do this you would have to construct the perpendicular bisectors of each side with your compass and straight edge. Comment on this answer if you are unsure of how to construct a perpendicular bisect (it's a long fundamental process to describe, and I wouldn't want to lecture you one something you already know). Once you have done so, set your compass point on the point where all perpendicular bisectors intersect (they should intersect in ONE point, if not you will have to redo it). Set your other compass lead on one of the vertices and spin away! If you have done this correctly, you should hit all three vertices when spinning your compass. Hope this helps!
Fun fact: the point where all perpendicular bisectors intersect is called the circumcenter
Answer:
Area = 21/2 = 10.5 area units
Step-by-step explanation:
Two of the points are on the same line (the y-axis) as they both have x-coordinates of 0. This can thus be the base of your triangle.
Two more are on the same line (y= -9) as they both have the same y-coordinate of -9. This can be the height of your triangle.
So you have a base which is between -2 and -9 (7 units) and a height which is between 0 and 3 (3 units) so now just use the equation for area of a triangle
30-8=22 but I’m not sure about the graph part
