Question

The length of DF is ___ , its slope is ____ , and its midpoint is (_ , _ ).

Answer 1

Answer:

• DF = √(m²+n²)
• slope = -n/m
• midpoint = (m/2, n/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula or the Pythagorean theorem will tell you the length of DF:

  DF = √((m -0)² +(0 -n)²)

  DF = √(m² +n²)

The slope can be found from the slope formula or by looking at rise/run.

  slope = rise/run

  slope = -n/m

The midpoint is the average of the end points:

  midpoint = ((0, n) +(m, 0))/2

  midpoint = (m/2, n/2)
