How do i find the shorted distance between the point and the line

Mathematics

m_a_m_a [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 8

4y = -3x+8

y = -3/4+2

The shortest distance between a point and a line is the perpendicular line.

Slope of the perpendicular line: 4/3 and point (-3,-2)

b = -2-(4/3)(-3) = 2

Equation of the perpendicular line: y=4/3x+2

y is equal y

4/3x+2= -3/4x+2

4/3x +3/4x = 2-2

x = 0

Plug x=0 into one of the equations to find y

y = 4/3(0) + 2

y = 2

(0,2) and (-3,-2)

Distance = sqrt [(-3-0)^2 + (-2-2)^2]

Sqrt (-3)^2+ (-4)^2

Sqrt 25 = 5

The 5x5 square  grid has 6 , 2 x 2 subgrids and the least value of n for which you can be certain that it will have a 2 x 2 subgrid of grey squares is 12.

<h3>What is a Square ?</h3>

A square is a polygon with four sides and all the sides are equal and parallel and all the angle value is 90 degree.

(a) The 5x5 square  grid has 6 , 2 x 2 subgrids.

(b) the least value of n for which you can be certain that it will have a 2 x 2 subgrid of grey squares is 12

as it can be understood from the figure 2 that only the last square doesn't have a pair and the rest all does

more than that will be extra but 12 will be enough to make all the grey squares of 2 x 2 subgrid .
