Triangle ABC has the three sides AB, BC, and AC.
Let's find the slope of each line. We'll use the slope formula
Let's start with the slope of line AB.
A = (-3, -4) = (x1,y1)
B = (16, -2) = (x2,y2)
m = slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-2-(-4))/(16-(-3))
m = (-2+4)/(16+3)
m = 2/19
The slope of line AB is 2/19. I'll keep it in fraction form.
We'll use this later, so let p = 2/19.
---------------
Repeat those steps to find the slope of BC
B = (16, -2) = (x1,y1)
C = (13, -10) = (x2,y2)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-10-(-2))/(13-16)
m = (-10+2)/(13-16)
m = -8/(-3)
m = 8/3
The slope of line BC is 8/3.
Let q = 8/3 so we can use it later.
---------------
Now find the slope of line AC.
A = (-3, -4) = (x1,y1)
C = (13, -10) = (x2,y2)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-10-(-4))/(13-(-3))
m = (-10+4)/(13+3)
m = -6/16
m = -3/8
The slope of line AC is -3/8
Let r = -3/8.
---------------
To recap everything so far, we have
- p = slope of line AB = 2/19
- q = slope of line BC = 8/3
- r = slope of line AC = -3/8
We can see that,
- p*q = (2/19)*(8/3) = 16/57
- q*r = (8/3)*(-3/8) = -1
- p*r = (2/19)*(-3/8) = -6/152 = -3/76
Of those slope multiplications, q and r multiply to -1 is what we should focus on. If two slopes multiply to -1, then their lines are perpendicular. This applies to any perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical, and neither is horizontal.
The fractions 8/3 and -3/8 are negative reciprocals of one another. We flip the fraction and flip the sign from positive to negative, or vice versa. This is another way to see we have perpendicular slopes.
So in short, we've shown that BC and AC are perpendicular, and therefore triangle ABC is a right triangle.
----------------------------------------------------------------
To solve this problem a completely different way, we could follow this outline:
- Step 1) Find the length of each side AB, BC, and AC. Use the distance formula.
- Step 2) Apply the pythagorean theorem converse. If you can show a^2+b^2 = c^2 is true, then the triangle with sides a,b,c is a right triangle, where c is the longest side (hypotenuse) opposite the right angle.
Through step 1, you should find that,
- AB = sqrt(365)
- BC = sqrt(73)
- AC = sqrt(292)
Let a = sqrt(73), b = sqrt(292), c = sqrt(365). You should find that a^2+b^2 = c^2 is a true statement based on those values, and therefore we have a right triangle. The longest side is AB = sqrt(365), making angle C to be the 90 degree angle. The diagram is shown below. I used GeoGebra to make the diagram.
Answer:
25,600 feet in difference
Step-by-step explanation:
If the jet is 25,000 feet above sea level then dives 600feet below sea level that will be 25,600 feet in difference.
25,000 - - 600
25,000 + 600
25,600
